Hello!
I read a lot about kernel updates in this list, but I still have the
following (understanding?) problem:
When I install a new kernel from on of the repositories
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/Vanilla/openSUSE_10.3/
or
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_Factory/i586/
I get the "most current" Version of the kernel. When I now want to stick
to a specific version, lets say 2.6.23 or 2.6.24 (when finished), where
will I get the security updates for the version? The repositories will
change to the newer branch again, won't they?
Also, where do I get the 2.6.23 build now, when there are already the
2.6.24-rc builds in the repositories?
You get the security updates for the kernels of released products, not
for every 2.6.xx branch. (Of course someone could create subpackages
for every 2.6.xx kernel.)
Ciao, Marcus
