Please give it a try and tell me how it goes. Looks good, I had to massage 7 chunks, but it applied and built well. But just after finishing the RH9 kernels, I read the mremap() security announcement, so I'll have to update the kernels again :( I hope to have <= RH9 kernels, kernel modules and userland components within the next days. I had already uploaded the FC1 equivalents, I need to investigate whether the (latest) FC1 kernel I used had already the mremap fix applied. > > Also if 2.8.3/2.9.0 keep i2c 2.8.2 compatibility, I will be able to > > supply new kernel module rpms for lm_sensors/i2c w/o rebuilding the > > kernel. :) > > Yes, it should be compatible.
