Patch to apply against 2.6.9
Watching the -ac patchset in the future would also be a good idea, since it contains "...clearly correct fixes to real problems in 2.6.9 that ought to go into a production 2.6.9 series kernel..." [1] That might be good for gentoo-dev-sources, since it's the official Gentoo distribution Kernel on x86 and amd64 (according to [2]). [1] http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=109836201404180&w=2 [2] http://dev.gentoo.org/~dsd/gentoo-dev-sources/ It's already included in gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.9-r2 but I forgot to mention it in the changelog, sorry. I'm keeping my eye on Alan's patchset, but I wish he would split the patches out so that I don't have to trust that other people have done it correctly... And you read my page wrong - gentoo-dev-sources is the supported _2.6_ kernel, but for x86 at least, 2.4 is still the default. > but I wish he would split the patches out so that I don't have to trust > that other people have done it correctly... Try to convince Alan to use BK then ;) > And you read my page wrong - gentoo-dev-sources is the supported _2.6_ kernel, > but for x86 at least, 2.4 is still the default. No I read it right, but I didn't express myself right. ;) |
