The only reason I ever upgrade to a new kernel is if I'm experiencing instability due to kernel issues or if I need to add hardware support that isn't in the current kernel. You can use the appropriate kernel-image package or compile your own. jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
