[opensuse-kde] uname -r reporting wrong kernel version

I actually have two issues, one major and one minor. This is the major.
Expect a second post from me.
After installing an updated kernel module via yast (uvcvideo and uvcvideo-
debug), I noticed while working in konsole that I could not load any modules.
They were all "not found" by modprobe. I could insmod some modules with the
full path, but modprobe was useless.
I then decided a reboot might be in order. No modules loaded as the default
kernel loaded. I noticed then that uname -r was reporting a false version. I
couldn't figure out why. /etc/modprobe.conf seemed okay and I have no clue
what to make of all the files in /etc/modprobe.d
I switched to the debug kernel, which is what I'm running now. I had to use
lynx (always hold on to the old stuff) to go the nvidia site and install the
driver because the debug kernel didn't have it (I'm using KDE 4.1, which I'm
loving, but it's way too slow without hardware acceleration even without all
the fancy doodads), but it's working fine now except for display managers
refusing to run.
So what's going on? Where do I need to look?
Hopefully I'll be able to view your responses in pine when I need to boot over
again.
