The kernel is upgraded in point releases when justified (an exploit for example). However, there's no way Debian can release a new major kernel revision in a point release and still call it stable (think about a "feature freeze" as to why this is the case). More to the point, there's no reason a user can't upgrade the kernel themselves! -- Nathan Norman "Eschew Obfuscation" Network Engineer GPG Key ID 1024D/51F98BB7 http://home.midco.net/~nnorman/ Key fingerprint = C5F4 A147 416C E0BF AB73 8BEF F0C8 255C 51F9 8BB7
