If you are running the 2.6.23.15-137 kernel, just remove the 2.6.23.14-107
kernel. Then your update won't try to update the nvidia drivers for that kernel.
The kmod-nvidia stuff seems to get confused if:
You're running one kernel
A new kernel is installed without updating the nvidia drivers
Another new kernel is installed
