Subject: Re: distro specific kernels vs vanilla kernel and how to compare among each other
Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2007 13:32:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2090880485@web.de> (raw)

besides a web-browseable directory structure with all the single broken-out patches (which are typically part of src.rpm or similar) , i assume it would be good to put those patched and unpatched kernel sources online via lxr ? ( http://lxr.linux.no/ )
