Yes. But what if they *are* broken (like the 2.6.8 one). You then would recommend a Debian kernel over a generic one, even if the Debian one has to be from a different Debian version (unstable instead of stable in this case)? Are there no problems to be expected because of the difference of versions? Andreas Goesele -- Omnis enim res, quae dando non deficit, dum habetur et non datur, nondum habetur, quomodo habenda est.
