Re: [solved]source of kernel

The config file of the currently used kernel is located under /proc/config.gz. As for the sources I suppose you could take a look at the pkgbuild used to build the kernel.

Re: [solved]source of kernel

You can obtain build-specific files for each package in arch using abs (it's in [extra]) or get it directly from here. You can find more details in the wiki.

Przeczytaj dokładnie co to ABS (na wiki jest też wpis po polsku, choć zdecydowanie uboższy) i jak tego używać. Powodzenia

only a personal preference, but I use lesspipe through less. Then you can redirect that output to a file if need be.

zless /proc/config.gz

Wow, great!!   It replaces "zcat  /proc/config.gz | less" combo.
