Just to provide a more complete answer: the issue with trying to use a 3.x kernel on Fedora 14 (or Fedora 15) is that a large number of applications and kernel models are designed to expect the 2.x version number. They fail to parse the 3.x version and will not run properly. This has mostly been worked out for Fedora 16 packages, but the effort has not been backported to F14 and F15. So I'd recommend that what you probably want to do is to take the SRPM for the 2.6.40.3 kernel from Fedora 15 and rebuild it for F14.
