My kernel is 64bit  ( uname -a is as under )

uname -a
-------------------------------------------------
Linux jk-pc 2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 21 05:33:33 UTC 2009 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


I've installed *kmod-wl-2.6.31.6-_166.fc12_.x86_64*    as 
kmod-wl-2.6.31.9-*_174.fc12_*.x86_64 is not available in repository .. 
and I'm not able to install it using yum

what can I do????  is there any source from where I can get 
*_kmod-wl-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64_ *

Regards
