D'oh! You're right:
updates                                              Fedora 11 - i386 - Updates                                               enabled:  4958
updates-testing                                      Fedora 11 - i386 - Test Updates                                          enabled:   820


updates-testing was enabled when I was in Fedora 10, and I
suppose that the update converted it to F11's updates-testing. Not
really smart, but it couldn't know.

Thanks a bunch for that hint, Tony!

Now that I have the latest 2.6.29 kernel installed from RPMs, and that
I disabled the updates-testing repos, is there a way to tell the system
to remove this testing kernel, other than `rpm -e`?


Regards,
