Currently we do not build different kernel configs or have an easy method 
to do so automatically.  I'll add it to my todo list to build a kernel 
RPM w/o 3dNow support but if you you have an F9 system and want 
something right away, you can follow the directions at [1] to rebuild 
the RPM yourself.
