FC6: Which arch is the kernel?


How can I find out which architecture kernel is installed? I am having trouble installing video card driver. The error is below. Someone said maybe the kernel is 586 instead of 686. How can I tell?

Thanks!

-> Kernel module load error: insmod: error inserting './usr/src/nv/nvidia.ko':
-1 Invalid module format
-> Kernel messages:
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
nvidia: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
nvidia: version magic '2.6.12-prep 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-4.1' should be
'2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 SMP mod_unload 586 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-4.1'
