This is new to me so I need some help. I am to bisect using deb kernel 
packages between Raring and Saucy? Not sure where to find these. Also if 
using just kernel updates I can't test the installer so testing would 
only involve seeing whether a default video driver can be successfully 
installed?
Thanks Brian
