A toolchain only upgrade is insane, better upgrade everything to current then... and lose a lot of Salix packages that might not work in current.
That's why I prefer a rebuild of the current kernel with the 13.37 toolchain. Not that I did or need this. But it should be quite straightforward.

Haha. Easy for you maybe. I'm downloading 3.2.13 right now (pointed Gslapt at an ftp mirror, derp), and have no real idea what it will do. Oh well!
Also, as I understand it, you really don't want the current repos. The idea is to upgrade just the kernel.
The problem with glibc presumably just related to the nvidia driver I built "just for fun", and I'd better downgrade glibc and gcc for normal operations. In fact I think that's what I did, because I didn't blacklist them in Gslapt and I certainlydidn't enable any extra repos.
Well, I guess it might help if you understood that I don't really understand what I'm doing. Just following a set of instructions and hoping my wi-fi is detected on reboot. I enabled the modules for my card (Realtek 8191SEvA2), so there's that. It's making the bzImage file right now.

Huh? Two posts ago you've said you are downloading a kernel with gslapt. Now you are talking about building a kernel yourself. What are you actually doing?
But it should be quite straightforward.
