Here's a sample "find-provides" script as proposed by Fedora guys:

The proposition is to include it in all rpm-based distros. What it
does is simple - for each kernel module add Provides with a matching
modalias. The goal is to allow managers like poldek to automatically
find needed packages for detected hardware.
