I downloaded debian kernel source package (+ source for alsa modules and 3dfx module).
I used make-kpkg to build the kernel (and later on alsa and 3dfx modules). I specified jojda.1 as my kernel revision. the resulting *.deb (kernel + modules) were succesfully installed, so now I have: ih kernel-image-2.2.17 jojda.1 1:2.2.17-1 ^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^ current new and aptitude wants to replace current by new... how to make it NOT replace my local packages? for the time beingI have put these on hold, but I would like it not to even try (I might nt catch it, sometime it updates lot of packages) the same goes for alsa-modules-2.2.17: ih alsa-modules-2.2.17 0.5.9d-1+j1:0.5.9d-1 (there is only 'j' visible out of the jojda.1 string), how is 0.5.9d-1 newer then 0.5.9d-1+jojda.1 ? TIA erik
