The latest kernel-source package in stable is 2.4.18. If you intend to compile your own kernel, you can easily get kernel-source-2.4.20 or kernel-source-2.4.21 from unstable, and use your normal programs to compile and install it. You don't need to abandon debian source packages to make a kernel later than 2.4.18. Kevin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
