As manny people have said in the past and will say again, you
CANNOT mix userland and kernel versions, they both have to be from
the same source!
You can get away with a newer kernel sometimes by just recompiling
the programs that dont work, but you are meant to have your whole
system running at the same version... It makes sense dosent it?
Why on earth would you want to have part of your system running
a diffrent version to the rest? Its just silly...
If you somehow manage to install a kernel from diffrent sources you
have to choice of upgading the whole system to that level, building
a new kernel with the right source or you may find that /kernel.old
is your previouse compiled kernel and replacing /kernel with it will
get you back to the old version...
If you read the online hand book im sure there is plenty in there
about this...
