That takes care of 99.99% of the items to gain back the space.

You can do the same thing much easier with:
as the superuser,
Code:
# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.10-1.760_FC3
kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3
#
That lists all versions of the kernel that are installed. To remove the older version kernel:
Code:
# rpm -e kernel-2.6.10-1.760_FC3
#
kernel-2.6.10-1.760_FC3 must be typed in exactly as it appears in the rpm -q listing. In fact, it is best to use copy/paste for the kernel version.
That will do everything (and possibly more) that Brian1 said to do in one easy step
