It hasn't been in unstable long enough to prove worthy. :) Or some dependancy issues perhaps. Also 'stable' kernel doesn't mean bug free and without problems, and hence maybe not yet ready for testing in Debian. Debian does have a rather high standard to live up to, which is probably much higher than what the linux kernel releases tend to have. > I'm thinking of pulling in 2.6.25 from unstable, but don't want to create > other problems. That shouldn't cause problems. In fact I saw a kernel package maintainer ask someone to do that to test if a bug in 2.6.24 was still in 2.6.25 and said it should install perfectly on lenny. > How can I find the ETA of 2.6.25 entering lenny? (I think some of lenny is > already frozen - would that include the kernel?) Maybe, although that just would mean that someone would have to explicitly permit it in. I get the impresion that the current goal for Lenny is actually 2.6.26. > I would think that they would fix the 2.6.24 4G bug if that is what they > will release with?
