well,

we are holding of most kernel updates until Cooker gets fully unfrozen 
again, so that 2007 Release tree will have complete 2.6.17.* sets ...

And the work Danny has to do to get a *mm* 2.6.17 updated into 2.6.18 is 
_huge_, so it can take a while...

I have a *tmb* 2.6.18 set ready, but I havent released it yet as it took 
 almost a month to get the last mirror mess sorted out, so I dont want 
to risk it...

But if you wait a while, they'll show up...

As for the media drivers you want, are you sure the *tmb* and *mm* 
kernels does not already have it ?

We have a media tree from a 2.6.18-rcX
