The current kernel for F11 is 2.6.30.5-43  (Do a "yum update" in order
to get it.)

That means it is a full 2.6.30.5 kernel with a number of patches applied
by Fedora that could come from development kernels upstream (could be
bug fixes, could be new functionality...).  What is it you think you
need in a 2.6.31 kernel?  And do you know that it isn't already in the
2.6.30.5-43 that Fedora provides?
