The same happened to me when I upgraded from FC3->FC4

 when running up2date many updates seem to be available
 yum also works (at least I instaaled the new nvidia driver with it from livna)
 
 
I have the impression that it some configuration error : After the upgrade
some files were not upgraded
   i.e. /etc/sysconfig/rhn/source
        /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
	/etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo (some files)
They still conatained FC3 info. In this case the rhn-applet became "red",
but up2date onley tried to update "old" FC3 programs

So I replaced the files by the files with extention .rpmnew. Now up2date &
yum work, but the rhn-applet always is "blue". 

What configuration issue do I miss?
