Sorry: the kernel.org sources. > The latter will publish a patch against 2.6.21 when 2.6.22 goes stable. Could you point me to a URL please? Would I have to remove the patches 1-3 (in my example) prior to using this patch against 2.6.21? I've been using the incremental patches from <http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/incr/>, but they only work "within" a release cycle (2.6.21.1-2, for example). Not exactly what I'm thinking of for my slow box. -André -- Our OS who art in CPU UNIX be thy name Thy programs run, thy syscalls done In kernel as it is in user
