What patches are applied to the vanilla kernel to make kernel26?

I tried to find some information on the wiki, but it all it says is "Vanilla kernel with some patches applied". So what patches are applied?

http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/ … l26/trunk/ refers to ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/kernel26/
The paths will change for linux 3.0.

Vanilla with patches... sounds like "unaltered with some changes" :-D

Maybe there's something like Fedora kernel or Ubuntu kernel you can use as a base. You can use kernel-ck and some patches, too.

There's even a separate Arch project for the kernel patches http://projects.archlinux.org/linux-2.6-ARCH.git/

actually look in http://projects.archlinux.org/linux-2.6 … e/PATCHCFG

only one patch is applied. for linux 3.0 we don't use that stuff anymore and the same patch is applied as well. (fix-i915.patch)

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
