I haven't updated yet because I'm still waiting for kmod-nvidia, the
module needed by the kernel for nvidia cards (proprietary driver only,
I'm not sure. I suppose so,) Now, when I do "yum update", kmod-nvidia
is still not there, the new kernel is also missing... but the kernel's
firmware and headers are there.

Once again NVIDIA drivers are creating a mess. Go to Google, enter
2.6.32.9-70 and fedora, you'll see. People with no experience give all
kind of solutions that are very unlikely to work. You just need to
wait for kmod-nvidia to arrive. And, every time you update, you have
to check if there's a kernel update and if the accompanying nvidia
module is there.
