[Bug 215206] New: Kernel version mismatch
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=215206 Summary: Kernel version mismatch Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: microchip@chello.be QAContact: qa@suse.de Hi, today I got new kernel updates from http://software.opensuse.org/download/Kernel/SUSE_Linux_10.1/ . I went on installing them using zen-updater and the installation was successful. However, after installation I found out that the new kernel had the same version as the previous one that I used, which was 2.6.18-rc5-1.2-default but when I went to the above repository, I saw it was 2.6.18-rc5-1.4 (the same one the zen-updater reported). Also 'uname -r' still reports my previous version. The other thing is that the new kernel source that I installed does not match the new kernel in the repository. The kernel source was version 2.6.18.1-24. After I found out this, I then wanted to recompile my nvidia driver for the newly installed kernel, but the nvidia script complained about a kernel source mismatch and exited. I think you guys should be much more careful when releasing new kernels with their sources as this can break a lot of systems. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

These are experimental builds and are only for experts and are not supported by us in any way. The problem you see is likely an incomplete sync. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
