6.0 kernel-images and ""-headers are not up to date...old images
The problem is, on an apt-get install kernel-headers, it only lists older kernels, not my 2.6 one:
apt]# apt-get install kernel-headers
Reading package lists... Done

Package kernel-headers is a virtual package provided by:
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-k7-smp 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-k7 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-k6 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-686-smp 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-686 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-586tsc 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2-386 2.4.27-12
kernel-headers-2.4.27-2 2.4.27-12
You should explicitly select one to install.

You simply need to add the
You simply need to add the version of the headers you want - i.e. the version you have installed and running. Should be listed in Synaptic...
Like I previously noted...
There are only 2.4 kernels listed in both synaptic and manual update methods. I've used Mepis for a few years now, so I know this is some kind of configuration error...just not sure why i only get those kernels????
Like I previously noted...
You might not be aware of the name changes going on lately . Try searching for linux-kernel-headers and the like . Every thing is called linux-xxxxx these days.
