I've got one machine running Debian Sid that has not be upgraded in a month or so. It's running a custom kernel I built who-knows-when (2.6.6). Frankly, I can't remember the reason for the custom kernel. But, I'm a bit concerned because I probably compiled most features into the kernel and not as modules.
Anyway, the upgrade is asking to upgrade glibc and says: WARNING: POSIX threads library NPTL requires kernel version 2.6.8 or later. If you use a kernel 2.4, please upgrade it before installing glibc. I'm not clear on the image to install. Is linux-image-2.6-k7 a dummy package for the most recent image (linux-image-2.6.22-2-k7)? So, linux-image-2.6-k7 is the correct kernel? Here's my modules, cpuinfo, and lspci -- just in case anything jumps out that might be a problem. $ lsmod Module Size Used by mga 103792 0 lp 10564 0 uhci_hcd 30672 0 ohci1394 34756 0 ieee1394 108340 1 ohci1394 w83627hf 28612 0 eeprom 7752 0 i2c_sensor 2944 2 w83627hf,eeprom i2c_isa 2048 0 i2c_viapro 7052 0 i2c_core 23044 5 w83627hf,eeprom,i2c_sensor,i2c_isa,i2c_viapro $ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 6 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) Processor stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 1150.591 cache size : 256 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse syscall mp mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow bogomips : 2260.99 $ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
