The changelog for linux-image-2.6.17-5 says that it's 2.6.17.7 http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-2.6_2.6.17-5/changelog It was built on Saturday but *still* hasn't reached the repository. I don't know how long it usually takes, but it seems to be hanging around in limbo somehow. I couldn't wait any longer, so I downloaded the linux-image-2.6.17-5 source code yesterday and built it locally. -- CJ van den Berg mailto:cj@vdbonline.com xmpp:cj@vdbonline.com
