I think what you are asking is "what patches does Fedora apply over it's kernel on top of Linus' kernel?". The answer is to look in the source RPM of the Fedora kernel. After the src.rpm is installed a quick inspection of the .spec file will show you which patches are being applied and in which order and the patches themselves will be the SOURCES directory. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/CustomKernel will give you good hints as to which direction to go in. -- Sitsofe | http://sucs.org/~sits/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
