Let's see it step by step, that should get us there.

With patches :

mkdir ~/lttng
cd ~/lttng
wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/linux-2.6.29-rc3.tar.bz2
wget http://lttng.org/files/lttng/patch-2.6.29-rc3-lttng-0.92.tar.bz2
bzip2 -cd linux-2.6.29-rc3.tar.bz2 |tar xvof -
bzip2 -cd patch-2.6.29-rc3-lttng-0.92.tar.bz2  |tar xvof -
cd linux-2.6.29-rc3
mkdir patches
ln -s ../patch-2.6.29-rc3-lttng-0.92 patches
quilt push -a

Does this work ?
