Comment 45 for bug 719446

More fairly stupid newbie questions:

The custom kernel I made following Pawel's instructions works flawlessly, so problem clearly solved.

It installed itself as installed as 2.6.35-28.

Now there's an update waiting to come in with the same version number. Too soon to contain a fix for bug Pawel identified, and bug 719446 not referred to in changelog, so asume I don;t want it.

So I locked "linux" in package manager. But sooner or later a kernel version will show up with the bug fixed.

How do I know that's happened? Just follow this page?
