You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Where did kmod-7-2.fc17.x86_64 come from? Are you mixing ATrpms and
RPMFusion? If so, this is likely at least part of the problem.

Nope. Using the standard fedora repos with atrpms, adoble and google.

It looks like its comming from the standard fedora repos. Any attempts to
install module-init-tools looks like it wants to install kmod.

PS - it looks like kmod is a replacement for module-init-utils and these
packages want it:
nfs-utils-1.2.6-0.fc17.x86_64 has missing requires of kmod
systemd-44-12.fc17.x86_64 has missing requires of libkmod.so.2()(64bit)
systemd-44-12.fc17.x86_64 has missing requires of
libkmod.so.2(LIBKMOD_5)(64bit)
udev-182-1.fc17.x86_64 has missing requires of libkmod.so.2()(64bit)
udev-182-1.fc17.x86_64 has missing requires of
libkmod.so.2(LIBKMOD_5)(64bit)

Yeah, I was looking at my F16 systems and didn't have that kmod package. I
know I've seen similarly named packages mentioned in conjunction with the
RPMFusion repo so that's where my confusion came from. I just looked at
the one system that I've upgraded to F17 and I have the kmod package
installed as well. Looks like a packaging issue with the NVidia packages
from ATrpms. I know it is not the best solution, but if you are in a bind
you could probably manually install the packages using rpm with the
--nodeps option. Seems like kmod is providing the same / similar
functionality as module-init-utils, so hopefully everything would load
properly.

It's probably not really relevant here, but ISTR that in CentOS 5
module-init-tools had to be replaced by an earlier version to get things
to work. I don't remember what the problem was, but I think Paulo
sorted that one out.
