Configure up2date (the personal user version is free) and then do:
# up2date -l
If you see a new kernel, and it's probably marked to be ignored, do the
following:
# up2date -u -f kernel*
This will safely install the correct kernel for your system. The old
one will be left intact in case you ever need to go back.
While you're visiting up2date, apply the rest of the updates too. The
vast majority of them will be security releases.

That's it. Nice and simple.
