#759104 launchpad bug
I tried to chat on Ubuntu-uk, but must have been disconnected, as I
couldnt get through. I finally managed to connect to my Oneiric
kernel via ssh, I was adding the wrong IP address, and tried to
update, but all it was showing was maverick updating, not Oneiric
kernel. I just wondered, how can I update the kernel not update the
whole thing to natty.
John
Can somebody help with this please?
Thanks
It won't update as there is nothing newer in any repository that you
have in your sources.list Installing an Oneiric kernel on Maverick is
quite an unsupported thing to do. (that is a whole release apart
skipping over Natty) I am not sure what you want to update. I don't
quite understand why you are connecting to the machine with SSH,
presumably it is local to you as you can see the backlight isn't on.
That bug doesn't seem to be about the backlight specifically, I am a bit
confused about the whole situation to be honest, I expect others are
too. Maybe try running Natty instead of Maverick, it might support your
hardware better, or file a bug that details the backlight issue.
