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?
