*Have* you verified that you are not already on the latest kernel?
[lanny@compaq1300 ~]$ uname -a Linux compaq1300.HOMELAN 2.6.18-8.el5 #1 SMP Thu Mar 15 19:57:35 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [lanny@compaq1300 ~]$
Kai: That's the kernel that is on the CentOS 5 Install DVD. During the past few days, I did "yum update" on our 3 Desktops and I will now continue to do that, frequently, as if these Desktop boxes were Servers. In the 2 Dell Dimension boxes, the kernel updated. In this Compaq Evo D300v Celeron box, the kernel did not update. Lanny

Ok. I just asked because you never mentioned you had actually checked. Just a kernel missing when you update is not proof ;-) I see that you have priority protections in place. Disable all your extra repos, then disable the protections (basically go back to your inital repo setup) and then do a check-update. You are using the mirrorlist and not a specific CentOS mirror, do you?
BTW: I notice that your mail is missing any threading information, so that it doesn't thread at all. I see that other people who use Gmail do get the threading information, so there's probably some option not activated in your Gmail account.
