Updating your kernel is a riskier proposition than updating your applications so doing it by hand may be prudent. By the way, are you sure your kernel is version 2.3 ? This seems a bit odd. If it is indeed version 2.3 then i would suggest updating your kernel. Version 2.3 was a development kernel not really meant for production use.
