@Shareef Jalloq: In order to install a newer kernel package from lucid, you'll have to do the folowing:
(1) Add lucid to your /etc/apt/sources.list or better a file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d, e.g.: # ubuntu standard repositories deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main deb-src http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main (2) This will upgrade to lucid the next time you run apt-get. Hence, set lucid packages to a much lower priority by adding a file to /etc/apt/preferences.d/ that contains: Package: * Pin: release v=10.04 Pin-Priority: 1 Package: * Pin: release a=lucid Pin-Priority: 1 After doing so apt will never install a package from lucid that is also present in karmic. If you were to install a package that is only present in lucid, this will be selected, e.g. linux-image-2.6.32-7-generic. To override apt's default choise you can also use (see the manual for more details): $ apt-get install <some package>/lucid -- Ubuntu 9.10 and Vbox 3.0.8-3.0.10 lag issue in XP vm. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482486 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
