same as in redhat/mandrake/debian.. get a new kernel, preferably from the
disto updates sites, as most distros add additional patches nowadays! and
then compile and install it as normal.. u cud also try to patch yr existing
kernel source with a upgrade patch, if u hav the same kernel as distributed
by linus.
