Thank you.   I will just wait for the next kernel update.
I mainly wanted to make sure nothing was wrong.  This
upgrade (6.1 --> 6.2) was the upgrade from hell on the machine.

Funny thing, on my other machine, when I did my "yum upgrade"
it told me there was nothing to upgrade.  Checking "/etc/redhat-release"
told me I was already upgraded.  I had accidentally upgraded last
week during my weekly routine upgrades.  It went so well I
didn't even realize it.  One was a dream upgrade; the other
was the upgrade from hell.  Weird.  I can't win.

Many thanks,
