[SOLVED] Arch Linux distro/kernel version

I am pretty new to Linode and the idea of VPS, so I apologize if this is an obvious question.

I set up an Arch Linux distro install (64bit version) a few weeks ago. I've been updating regularly and just noticed I'm not getting any kernel or gcc updates. Is that to be expected? If I run 'cat /proc/version' the output is:

Linux version 3.0.18-x86_64-linode24 (root@build.linode.com) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) )

That surprised me as I thought I'd be getting output like this:

Linux version 3.2.12-1-ARCH (tobias@T-POWA-LX) (gcc version 4.6.3 (GCC) )

The latter being output similar to what I'd get on all of my local Arch Linux installs.

Is it possible to get my Linode install to run the bleeding edge Kernel & GCC versions like my local Arch installs? I didn't want to start hacking around until asking first.

Thanks,

Culley
