update linux-image-3.5.0-18?

[jerrylamos]

Yesterday, this tower raring i386 update went from -17 to -18. External 1440x900 monitor.

Also my notebook amd64 1366x768 updated to -18.

My Acer Aspire1 netbook raring i386 is stuck at -17. Even apt-cache linux-image-3.5.0 shows only -17, but running apt-cache on this tower shows both -17 and -18. BTW, 1366x768 external monitor.

I tried update, synaptic, ... no luck getting the -17 to go to -18 on one of my 3 test pc's.

?? Any clue?

3.7 is coming soon; its actually into the built queue

3.7 seem to be in the repos now bit I guess we who use Nvidia have to wait until there's a Nvidia-driver which supports 3.7 available before we can use it, there was a new 304.62-driver yesterday but I'm not sure it supports 3.7, so it looks like 3.5.0-18 a little bit more it is ...

note that the 3.7 builts in RR repo are not good, so need to wait for a new built, and "nouveau" works well with 3.7

I will never use Nouveau until it can do proper 3D(it will take long before that happens, if ever)

Quantal apt-sources change to raring updated to -18.

Just installed raring .iso it's at -17.

Did an update & upgrade still at -17.

apt-cache search shows only 3.5.0-17. Yesterday before the install apt-cache search showed both -17 and -18.

Take a look at the Ubuntu version page for the Linux kernel. You can see that quantal-updates has a newer version, but raring-proposed has 3.7 so we'll be getting that in raring soon.

Why is raring using the 3.5 kernel and not the 3.6 one

[Harry33]

RR is jumping directly to 3.7.0. rc4
It is already there, see this:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/...inux/3.7.0-0.5

Just upgraded with 3.7.0-0, seems OK
