A rather late reply to a mail I found in the archives... but regarding the usage claim, I would like to mention that people who use e.g. the nvidia binary driver do not have much fun with the experimental kernel images without the corresponding linux-kbuild package. Although one can find http://wiki.debian.org/HowToRebuildAnOfficialDebianKernelPackage after some googling, it would be nice if the package would be uploaded as well. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
