Re: intel i5, system config question



Vanilla kernel sources have a roof.deb build target. ;-)

how easy is it to update to kernel 3+ in squeeze?

Upgrading to 2.6.39 is easy, as it is available in the backports archive (and 3+ may become available there at some point in the future). I expect upgrading to 3+ at the moment requires compiling your own kernel, and I will leave it to others to say that that is easy.

(There are instructions for compiling the kernel into a nice debian package, and you probably just have to find them and follow them.)
