   Unlike patches for the 2.6.x kernels, patches for the 2.6.x.y kernels

   (also known as the -stable kernels) are not incremental but instead apply

   directly to the base 2.6.x kernel.  Please read

   Documentation/applying-patches.txt for more information.



   Alternatively, the script patch-kernel can be used to automate this

   process.  It determines the current kernel version and applies any

   patches found.
