I just went through this.. yum --skip-broken seemed to allow me to

chance
using updates-testing.

Thanks, Aaron but, as I told Chris, I will wait for the complete fix.
If I remember well, I used skip-broken once without any problem but,
now, I'm always afraid of what will happen next.

Seems to be fixed now. My boxes now upgrade without dependency problems.

Same here, thanks. I tried the new nvidia-settings: the mess is much
worst than the precedent. It seems Nvidia works hand in hand with
Microsoft to get Linux users infuriated. So, how to I revert back to
the nouveau driver? Will "yum remove kmod-nvidia" revert the system to
the nouveau driver working with the most recent kernel?

yum does offer to remove kmod-nvidia.

You may have to edit your boot line in GRUB - the instructions for
installing the NVidia drivers do point out that in some cases you amy need
to modify them; if you've had to do that, you'll need to un-modify them.
