Having had much success using these kernels.

I realise that I use version, from uname -a, the output is.

Linux mc68060 2.6.38-7.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64 #1 ZEN SMP PREEMPT Sun May 22 23:53:16 CDT 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Having tried to update manually, I don’t seem to get any more? I understand there have been (beta?) updates since.

Could there be a reason for this?

I have checked my lists and suchlike, but nothing is disabled.

I thank you in advance for your time.

you aren't updating apt properly, the current main branch is 2.6.39.

There are no problems in apt, so the problem is somewhere in your system or internet connection.

I’m very aware that its something on my end, I wondered if this has been seen before..

lets see, my source file is as follows..

:: Code ::

# /etc/apt/sources.list.d/liquorix.list
# liquorix kernels
deb http://liquorix.net/debian/sid main
deb http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/liquorix.net/debian sid main

I have added and taken away "future" also, without any success.

Your sources are wrong:

:: Code ::
deb http://liquorix.net/debian unstable main


is right.

Weird:
:: Code ::
deb http://liquorix.net/debian/sid main


Right:
:: Code ::
deb http://liquorix.net/debian sid main


Some how you replaced the space with a forward slash.

Thank you very much :)

now all I have to do is figure out how to install the future or unstable kernels.

try google, or search the forums, learning how to search solves almost all technical issues, then if you can't understand what you found, asking has a context:

:: Code ::
deb http://liquorix.net/debian sid main
## add to this line future
deb http://liquorix.net/debian sid main future


apt-get update
apt-cache search liquorix

however I don't believe there are any future kernels at this point, and all standard main liquorix kernels are already debian sid/unstable, so you can't figure that out, you already have it.

But there is no future yet, damentz is waiting for the 3.0 patch set from con olivas, for zen and liquorix, they aren't done, so there's no point in releasing the 3.0 at this point.

I am a great believer in using search, dont you worry. I just mentioned it for chat sakes :)

Im happy with the way liquorix has always been so Ill just continue to use it as it happens.

Thank you for your help none the less.
