[PlanetCCRMA] do I really have to downgrade the kernel?

Hello

I've just got my CCRMA box online (as in, connected to the internet)
for the first time and am very confused.  This is what happened:

[root@mushroom root]# apt-get install muse
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
  kernel#2.4.20-24.1.caps.rh90.ccrma ladcca ladcca031 libfluidsynth
midishare
  midishare-kernel-2.4.20-24.1.caps.rh90.ccrma
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  kernel#2.4.20-24.1.caps.rh90.ccrma ladcca ladcca031 libfluidsynth
midishare
  midishare-kernel-2.4.20-24.1.caps.rh90.ccrma muse
0 packages upgraded, 7 newly installed, 0 removed and 50 not upgraded.
Need to get 16.0MB of archives.
After unpacking 38.3MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Abort.
[root@mushroom root]# uname -r
2.4.22-6.ll.rh90

What that seems to say is that in order to install the latest muse,
apt-get wants to give me a kernel older than my current one - 2.4.20-24
instead of 22-6.  Also it wants to install midishare.  Is that right?  If
so, is there a way I can do this without downgrading the kernel?

many thanks
