you're still on rawhide by the looks of it, try installing

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.

2.6.16-1.2083_FC6 would be perceived by yum as newer than the current stable kernel 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5, because it is, so yum isn't going to install it in a normal update.
