Great! Only how do I let the package manager know that I want to install
a different version? # zypper in kernel-source gives me:
"skipping package 'kernel-source' (already installed)
Nothing to do."

And  # zypper in kernel-source-2.6.22.5-31 gives me:
"package 'kernel-source-2.6.22.5-31' not found
Nothing to do."
