The changes represented by these tags mostly contain _no_ nubus-related
modifications. In general mainline kernel updates, which of course do
not affect the nubus-part of the kernel.

Further I do not recommend to use them at the moment since the CVS head
contains more PowerBook-related improvements, which are supposed to be
merged to the 2_4_33/34/35 branches...
So better just checkout without using tags.

Hmm, strange. Which commands did you exactly use?

My working copy says:

$ cvs status arch/ppc/platforms/nbpmac_setup.c
===================================================================

I'm not aware of any other CVS repositories. At least the one on SF is
the main source :)

cvs checkout linuxppc-2.4-nubus

Or if you really want to fetch 2.4.35.1:
cvs checkout -r linux-2_4_35_1 linuxppc-2.4-nubus

You may also have a look at the "Sticky Tag" drop-down menu on
http://nubus-pmac.cvs.sourceforge.net/nubus-pmac/linuxppc-2.4-nubus/
for all available CVS tags.

Cheers,

  Florian

PS: Yes, I promised to update all branches, though time is limited and I
was concentrating on 2.6.15.7 for the last "nubus-hacking days". Stay
tuned ;)
