Following #rpm -qa kernel*, I think I know what it is I need:

# rpm -qa kernel*
kernel-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl
kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl
kernel-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl
kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-16
kernel-doc-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl
kernel-module-nvidia-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl-1.0.5336-0.lvn.3.1
kernel-utils-2.4-9.1.101.fedora
kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl
kernel-uml-2.4.18-19.8.0

It appears that I need the kernel-module-nvidia for this new kernel, but 
I got that from livna, which is down.
