Just go back to using the previous kernel in your GRUB menu. You can edit your
grub.conf file to select the previous kernel automatically. These issues
usually work themselves out within a couple days with some new updates. After
installing the new kernel I noticed the Nvidia driver wasn't working so I
didn't get to the wifi, so I'm using the previous kernel until I notice a fresh
batch of updates to try again.
