With Raspbian being based on Debian it's not likely you'll find the latest versions of anything in Raspbian's repos. Debian errs on the side of stability and takes its time with getting the latest versions of packages into its "stable" branch. I'm not familiar with Raspbian. I only have one Raspberry Pi and I'm running Arch Linux on it. With regular Debian there is a "testing" branch that one can switch to to get more up to date software. Even in Debian's testing branch the latest version of SIMH available is 3.8.1-5. -- Kevin http://www.RawFedDogs.net http://www.Lassie.xyz http://www.WacoAgilityGroup.org Bruceville, TX What's the definition of a legacy system?
