Latest kernel for the i686?
Hello, when will be the release of the latest kernel for i686 arch? The kernel was already made available to the x86_64, how come the i686 doesn't have it yet?
I'm no kernel expert so just I rely on the binary version of the kernel..:( I would like to use it on my AA1

There is no difference between kernel26 package versions for i686 and x86_64 as far as I can tell.

Re: Latest kernel for the i686?
Glad to hear it! I don't enable my testing repository on my arch that's why I don't know..:)
Thanks

The new kernel is ALWAYS in [testing] first! So when a new release has come out, simply check the testing repo every now and then, so you won't miss it

Oh good, we'll get to enjoy GEM soon...
