That phpMyAdmin that you have now is from rpmforge. Which is a repository 
that's not used by default by BlueOnyx. Tying BlueOnyx into third party YUM 
repositories is always problematic for various reasons - like this here.

So here are the two steps how you can get back "on track":

As "root" from SSH go to /etc/yum.repos.d/ and remove any third party YUM 
repository file that's there. That should leave you with the following files 
in /etc/yum.repos.d/:

BlueOnyx.repo
CentOS-Base.repo
CentOS-Media.repo
Solarspeed-BlueOnyx.repo

Then downgrade phpMyAdmin to the BlueOnyx version:

rpm -hUv --force --nodeps \  
http://www.blueonyx.it/pub/BlueOnyx/5106R/CentOS5/blueonyx/i386/RPMS/phpMyAdmin-2.11.9.4-2.centos5.noarch.rpm

That should do the trick.
