For those who have not done the kernel upgrade and have a Nvidia video card you will probably need to do the install of the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4363.run package. The way I did it was to start the system with the new kernel, it would not give me an xserver, naturally, so I logged in as my user and the did su and the root password. Then changed directories to where the .run file was and typed the "sh NVIDIA-Linux*" command. It started the run and indicated that the package was not compiled for my kernel, did I want the installer to compile Nvidia for my kernel? I chose OK and so it did. Rebooted when done and my xserver was back on line. Nice feature Nvidia threw in there and I didn't know it could do that. Just a heads up for the Nvidia card crowd.
