I haven't checked lately, but it used to be:
- livna format is a kmod rpm for a specific kernel version. If the 
kernel changes, you need to wait for livna to publish a new kmod suited 
only to the new kernel. They get to do the compile, test release process.

- freshrpms format is a dkms module rpm. Along with requiring compiler 
tools and kernels headers installed, dkms detects a change in kernel 
during system boot up, and rebuilds the kernel interface to suit the new 
kernel. Mostly this just works - maybe an extra 30 seconds to compile it 
the first time you run a new kernel version.
