Yep. Looks like they don't bump the version number on those builds until the window closes and the first RC is out.Originally Posted by zika
Mea culpa. I've got fooled with 3.6 marker on them...
Thank You...
Gee! These Aren't Roasted!

While we are at this subject: what is the relation of daily-intel-experimental (994) to 999?

3.7 rc1 is now available. However there is no linux-header_all.deb file this time and only three files per architecture. Should I go ahead and install them?

Ok I get it. But it is so hard to wait once you get this addictiongoto #38...

For giggles, I went ahead and installed Linux 3.7-rc1, sans the all.deb file.
It didn't install correctly, of course -- unmet dependencies, thus broken header file -- but, it did boot and run in fallback mode, e.g. no 3D, so called.
Unity had no dash nor panel, but Conky (system monitoring app) worked. LoL!
Gnome-shell was in fallback mode, e.g. Gnome Classic. Other than no 3D display, it seemed to be fully functional.
LXDE/Openbox worked fine. Go figure.
Ultimately, I purged 3.7-rc1 (not fully cooked yet), reinstalled the nVidia 304.51 drivers (from edger's PPA), and all is normal again, under Linux 3.6.2.
Bottom line: I don't recommend installing 3.7-rc1, unless you want to push Humpty Dumpty off the wall (and put him back together again).

It works for me, I use OB or FB all the time...
Installed 3 files. Removed headers after image was created. It booted OK. Writing from 3.7...
Now I'll try to find some time to compile it following Milos_SD instructions on our LOCO Forum...
