By the looks of it the kernel has not been updated, strange as it installed

with no problems!

The only explanation I can think of for this is that you downloaded and
installed the SRPM (.src.rpm) instead of the binary RPM for your
system's architecture (e.g. .i386.rpm or .x86_64.rpm).

Many Thanks
