It's a good question I've never asked. If it's essentially certain this fix would go in the mainline kernel, I'd guess there's a good likelihood the kernel team would add the patch in rawhide/f23 kernel, which you can use on Fedora 22. So it's worth asking them if you can't or don't want to build it. That would be a 4.1.0 git kernel however. If you want to build it against something else like 3.19 or 4.0 then you'd need to build it yourself. I personally find it easier to build kernels from kernel.org source for this purpose, Fedora's custom kernel instructions work for Fedora 21 and it's handy in that it'll build rpms so you can build on one system and install on others (there's a way to tar it up when building from kernel.org source but I've never done that). -- Chris Murphy -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
