The new kudzu depends on the latest kernel. You need to remove the 
previous kernels after you boot into the latest one and verify that it 
works and yus that has been a pain for users in the development version 
too and it was discussed in fedora-test list

More community participation in the QA process and general testing 
helps.  More users could test the updates-testing repository and file 
bugs. Fedora bug squad team would appreciate more contributors too

In general, we want things to just work but to get there we need more 
people involved in the effort of making it work in the first place.  I 
would encourage you to contribute.
