Hi Rick,
Your suspicions are correct:
$ cat /etc/issue
Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow)
Kernel \r on an \m (\l)

If I am on the alpha program, why am I on 3.7x rather than 3.8x?
$ uname -rsvp

Not sure what you mean by the "alpha program" but if you expect to be on
F19 Alpha (note the *19*) then look again at the output of the command
you gave. It says F18 (note the *18*). So that box is running F18 and
not F19 alpha. And that is also the reason why it has kernel 3.7.x and
not kernel 3.8.x. Or did I miss something?
Richard claims to have "fedup"ped to F19. The kernel remains F18 and an
old F18 kernel at that (I've got several F17 boxes with
3.8.4-102.fc17.x86_64 kernels). My suspicion was that a yum config is
blocking a kernel update.
Richard, can you check the output of "cat /etc/issue" and verify that
your machine really thinks it's F19?- Hard work has a future payoff. Laziness pays off now. -
