Kernel issues

[M.]

Hello all,
 
I'm very much a newbie to Linux (running Fedora FC3 for 10 days) and there
is an issue I have run into. The biggest problem I have is that for some
reason my kernel doesn't update properly. My Fedora box is dual PPro running
kernel 667smp, but I know kernel 681smp is out there for download and
install. I run the GUI version of up2date and I always download and install
all patches that are made available.
 
For some reason kernel 681smp didn't install. So fine, I downloaded the
rpm-package for kernel 681smp manually with FireFox, choosing the option to
run it with the default application, but when FireFox has downloaded the
package and starts the installer, the installer says kernel 681smp is
already installed. Just to double-check I searched on the Internet and found
this command "uname -r", which confirms I am running kernel 667smp.
 
How do I force a reinstall or an update of the kernel to version 681smp?
 
 
Thanks,
Maurice.
