[WBEL-users] newbie - kernel and other upgrades questions

[Alon]

Got it!  I'll stick with the 'official release'. :)
Now,..  Karanbir Singh mentioned that latest kernel was 'released 12 hours 
ago'
1. I ran  'yum   update'  it provided me with zero new updates.
2. Do I need to reboot for the new kernel to kick in?
3. How would I know when there is a new update to the kernel?
4. With regards to sensors - any suggestions on how to monitor heat, fans 
and power values from the board and cpu?
