  Hey Khader : Potato is not yet officially released , meaning the freeze
is only mid january 2000 - it has hence only a codename 'Potato' , but no
version number. It could be debian 2.2 , it could be debian 13.56 or it
could be debian 100.0  - i maybe wrong about who chooses the version
number and/or how its chosen , but i'm *sure* potato does *not* have a
version number...
  Therefore I dont think its right to call it 2.2 , but just Potato.
  It could go like slack , 3.x -> 4.0 -> 4.1 -> 7.0 - IIRC
  :)
  and hey, kernel 2.3.31 - what gives ? did you use apt for the upgrade ? 

------------

    The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is:     2.2.13
    The latest beta version of the Linux kernel is:       2.3.31
    The latest prepatch (alpha) version *appears* to be:  2.3.32-2

  hehe , i'm on slink w/ 2.0.36   ;-) !!!@
