I discovered these directories while searching for something else :^). If there is no reason to maintain these directories, why aren't they removed by zypper. I try the newer kernels and when I don't find a problem, remove the previous, maintaining only the stock updated kernel and one other well performing kernel. Presently on my x86_64 11.2 system I have: kernel-default-2.6.31.14-2.1.x86_64 kernel-default-2.6.36-94.1.x86_64 kernel-default-2.6.37-35.1.x86_64 plus the matching base, source and devel packages for building nvidia drivers. jfyi, I keep a text file containing the kernel names w/o version numbers and: export K=2.6.3x-xx.1.x86_64 zypper -v rm `for i in `\cat kernel.txt\`;do echo $i$K;done` when I notice a new kernel, I reverse zypper, zypper -v in ..... -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
