This stops X working...

I have noticed this with yum before, with kernel updates I never  do
"yum -y update keren*"

And I am quite frankly surprised that any one woudl allow yum to
update their machine automatically every night.

Don't get me wrong, yum is great, I like it, but it's just a programe,
it's not intelligent and giving it permision to do what ever it wants
to your box is foolish.

About once a week I open a terminal and su to root and do "yum
check-update" and then decide for my self what I really need to fix
and what is not important, for example, OpenOffice updates so often,
and is such a huge download for what I assume is sometimes icon
changes!!!!
