Upgrading your kernel is not like upgrading GNOME or x-chat or any
other app. It takes a little extra work. MandrakeUpdate should not
(IMNSHO) offer to upgrade kernels (I think this is done in the latest
version) because it causes too many problems. kernel upgrades need
to be done manually... there's no easy way to do it automatically via
MandrakeUpdate.
