[ILUG] Trying to upgrade to Ubuntu kernel 2.6.39-0

[ILUG] Trying to upgrade to Ubuntu kernel 2.6.39-0

Hi all,

i'm trying to upgrade my 11.04 system to the 2.6.39-0 kernel.  The
procedure, according to the Ubuntu
forums, says to do the following:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-cache showpkg linux-headers

The last command is supposed to show that the 2.6.39-0 kernel headers are
available
but I only see the 2.6.38 ones..i.e.

the output is:

Reverse Provides:
linux-headers-2.6.38-8-virtual 2.6.38-8.42
linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic-pae 2.6.38-8.42
linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic 2.6.38-8.42
linux-headers-2.6.38-8 2.6.38-8.42

Googling didn't give me any new answers.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Braun
