Stop here! :-) I'm very interested in knowing what you mean with "automatically applying patches": I always used a mixed Debian-traditional way, downloading the kernel sources from kernel.org, applying patches by hand and recompiling using kernel-package stuff. I'd really like to know what I need to do that: some particular package? particular patches versions? a special directory to put them in? anything else? Pointers to docs are appreciated. -- BlueRaven Se non e' tutto chiaro, regolate i parametri di brightness e contrast della vostra mente ( Simon ). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
