Latest Kernel block


The latest kernel block indicates that 2.6.0-test1 is the latest beta kernel. It is actually test3 now.

Thanks. I'll take a look at the script to see why it wasn't updated.

Not to sound rude or anything, the kernel and its latest releases can change almost on a daily basis. Jeremy is a busy person working a full time job and also maintaining this great site. Is it really that important to keep bugging about the latest kernel block on the homepage and what release they are on? Just a thought....

Maybe the kernel team should write a script or something for others to use to autoupdate from... so we wouldn't have to bug jeremy for some of these tedious updates....

I understand, and I, honestly, don't have any problem with the script. Honestly, I don't get my kernel updates from linuxquestions.org...I look to kernel.org for that.

So why do I keep "bugging" about it? Just to alert him that there is a problem. I could care less if it is fixed or not. What makes this worth bugging about is that it is supposed to be autoupdated through a script. He doesn't change it manually...that means there is a problem with the script itself.

Thanks for the heads up. There is indeed a problem with the script. Will take a look at it ASAP.
