IIRC, they (2.6.11.x) aren't incremental, but are all based on 2.6.11. There is a subdir incr with incremental patches, or simply take only the last one - that is, .., 2.6.9, 2.6.10, 2.6.11, 2.6.11.10 . -- Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
