[Solved] Where could I find the outdated kernel 2.6.34 ABS tarball?

Hi,

I have a patch for my gpu module (i915 driver is giving me a pain). However, the patch is against the sources of the 2.6.34 kernel. And since the driver
is still being worked on, it does not patch against .35 or newer anymore.
Does someone have a copy of the 2.6.34 ABS tarball including the arch-specific patches? I dont feel sure enough with the specific-purpose .34 kernel
pkgbuilds that are left in aur to just take one of them. Nor do i know, if i could just take the .35 pkgbuild and make changes to the config.
Or is there a place having outdated abs tarballs?

Any idea is very welcome,

MC.

Keep in mind that you use the correct version of .34 kernel. There was a major security flaw in the kernel that was fixed from .35 on and only in specific versions in .34 and .32

So try and use the one that has the fix.
