PS: Now I'm confused. Which source am I supposed to patch to get 2.6.30? 2.6.0? 2.6.29? Which source will I be supposed to patch if there is a 2.6.30.1 at some time, the 2.6.29 or the 2.6.30? You can also download a patch-2.6.0 ... So how do you know to what version a patch can be applied if patches aren't supposed to be applied to the previous version? Maybe I should download 2.6.0 and apply patch-2.6.30 to that? But then again, what if they make a 2.6.30.1? Apply that to 2.6.0 or to 2.6.30? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
