If you bisect only kvm patches it should be pretty fast. The following commands should do it: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6-stable.git (if you already have a linux git tree somewhere, do 'git remote add -f stable git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6-stable.git' instead) git bisect start v2.6.29.1 v2.6.28 -- arch/x86/kvm virt/kvm git will check out a test version, build it and test, and respond with 'git bisect bad' or 'git bisect good'. Rinse and repeat. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function
