Frédéric,
Working fast here to get to other things I need to finish...
Thank you very much for the additional clarity hee -- I may have to try a vanilla to see how tht works, and thn apply the patches forward until it re-breaks.


Thank you!,
rgh.

Ok, is:

the same as:

plus/minus the Gentoo-specific patches?


possibly not. the gentoo-sources package has its own revision numbers
(the -r* bit). that's not saying that the changes in the
vanilla-sources (kernel.org with no extra patches) aren't included,
but there's no real association between vanilla 2.6.11.4 and gentoo
2.6.11-r4 aside from the fact that they're both based on the
kernel.org 2.6.11 release. looking at the patches included in
gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r6 (latest stable gentoo-sources), it includes
the patches for 2.6.11.6, but there the numbers aren't guaranteed to
match up like that.



You can have the patchlist here http://dev.gentoo.org/~dsd/gentoo-sources/release-11.09/patchlist.htm


(the equivalence 11.09 <-> 11-r6 is guven here:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~dsd/gentoo-sources/releases.htm )
