Kernel info

October 20, 2008 — BarryK
Looked here:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/linux-source
and downloaded the .deb file.

Ah ha! The source has a 'ubuntu' directory, with all the patches. Listing the contents:

atl2 aufs compcache dm-loop dm-raid4-5 drbd e1000e et131x gfs gnbd heci include iscsitarget Kconfig lirc Makefile misc ndiswrapper qc-usb rfkill squashfs tlsup unionfs via_chrome9

Directory 'misc' has more patches:
acerhk appleir dm-bbr fsam lmpcm thinkpad_ec tp_smapi snd-bt-sco ov511 acx at76 p80211 prism2_usb

Great, that's what I wanted to know!

Binary compat. with Ubuntu
Username: BarryK
I did raise the possibility recently: http://bkhome.org/archive/blog2/200808/binary-compatibility-with-a-major-distro.html In answer to disciple's question, I don't have any plan, I'm just playing. After 4.1.1, I'm not leading the Puppy project, I'll just be playing with my puplet, doing whatever I feel like. Fingers crossed, this blog seems to be working now. That earlier Ubuntu kernel post has something wrong with it, it would seem -- I can't even edit it, just get that "403" error.
