Hi Vasily and thanks very much.

I didn't realize there was a kernel package on systs.org, I have been
manually downloading the packages and installing them with dpkg. Which
package do I want? I see on your site that there is a note dated June 18th
announcing an update of 028stab035, which is 2.6.18. Is that it?
