I'm trying to locate build 166 of the k_athlon rpm package, because it's what I need to work with Win4Lin. The normal ftp sites give me build 144, because that's what came with SuSE 9.0. The update site (Yast Online Update) gives me build 192, which also doesn't work with Win4Lin. The update window shows that build 166 exists but doesn't give a way of selecting it, and I don't know where I can locate a copy.
Build 192 is so recent that NeTraverse won't have had time to build a win4lin version. I would expect a compatible kernel within a few days on their site http://www.netraverse.com/ That is probably the simplest solution to your problem, though it may mean a few days without win4lin.
Actually I reverted k_athlon to level 144 and got Win4Lin working again that way. I don't know how bad the security holes in 144 (or for that matter 166) are, though. I guess that people had been living with them for a while. Paul Abrahams
