Bug#618665: Online-Source for linux-image-2.6.32-30?

[Troy Korjuslommi <troykor@gmail.com>]

As a time saver for whom ever, here are the steps I did to downgrade the kernel:

Edited /etc/apt/sources.list to enable a single line:
deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110314T221327Z squeeze main

Then called:
apt-get update
apt-get install "linux-image-2.6.32-5-686=2.6.32-30"

Added the following apt_preferences file:
/etc/apt/preferences.d/linux-image

And added there the following lines:

Explanation: Do not install a version of the kernel which disappears the cursor.
Package: linux-image-2.6.32-5-686
Pin: version 2.6.32-31
Pin-priority: -1

Then edit /etc/apt/sources.list back to the original and update:
apt-get update
