Thanks, yes I installed FC5T3 and then yum updated to FC5, looks like 
it didn't quite work. I've got fedora-release-5-5.noarch.rpm 
installed, but I guess yum doesn't think I need a new kernel. Oh well, 
things are working fine, I'll just live with it for a while.

Thanks for the clarification.

John
