Hello,
I'm running wheezy and it's since weeks that I started wondering when a
new kernel will come to testing :-)
root@debian:~# cat /etc/issue
Debian GNU/Linux wheezy/sid \n \l
test@debian:~$ uname -r
2.6.32-5-686
Now (by purely chance) I realized that there is indeed a new kernel
available in the repositories so that this means it was me making some
kind of mistake.

I use to upgrade the machine with this command:
apt-get update&& apt-get -V dist-upgrade
Should I have been using another one that automatically triggered the new
kernel? Or is that kernel needs to be manually pulled? :-?
Greetings,
Hi,
whenever I power on my boxes firs I go in single user mod and apt-get
update && apt-get dist-upgrade like you.
On my Wheezy box:
$ uname -r
2.6.38-2-686
I really doubt that I got it just because I was in single-user.
Maybe your box was just tired and made a small mistake? :-)
