Hmmm, I missed a ltsp kernel update. I just built new packages and
uploaded them into the test directory:

	ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/testing/RPMS/

Be sure to update both the
ltsp_kernel_i386-3.0-15.k12ltsp.0.4.0.noarch.rpm and the
ltsp_kernel_i386_pxe-3.0-15.k12ltsp.0.4.0.noarch.rpm packages.

These packages should work for both K12LTSP 3.1.x and 4.0.x. 

Once more extensive testing has been done, I'll move these over to the
apt/yum repositories.
