For me, kernel-patch-debian-<kver> doesn't apply cleanly lately due to
the latest resolutions about the social contract.
Quoting
/usr/share/doc/kernel-source-2.6.7/changelog.Debian.gz:
* Added the drivers-net-tg3 patch. It only adds firmware loading
support, contrary to the drivers-net-tg3-readd patch which re-adds
the whole driver. As a consequence, the Debian patch also applies
to the vanilla kernel again. Note that this patch is only kept
here for reference for the time being and will not be activated
until the next upstream release (Jens Schmalzing).
The path I took, which is to use debian's kernel source package, won't
help Shachar. He might have to take a closer look at that package or find
another solution.
It is my understanding that this quote says that
kernel-patch-debian-<kver> should be fully usable again starting with
2.6.8.
