fedora core 5 + nvidia update



Greetings,
I recently did a system update using yum (yum update).
This has updated my kernel to: 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.
My box is an x86_64 smp (dual core).
I've tried to update the kernel module for my nvidia card from
rpm.livna.org repository (yum -y --enablerepo livna install
kmod-nvidia-smp), but yum reports that there is nothing to do.
Anyone else having this problem?
Any suggestions on how resolve this?
