Linux 2.1 Unofficial Patches

[Home] [Linux 2.0] [Linux 2.1] [Information] [Software] [Distributions] [Links]

Notice:

I am working at building an improved patch repository system. The patches here are really, really old.

For now, the linux-kernel mailing list is still the best place to search for patches. You have been warned. Cheers, - Jim

If you need assistance in applying these patches, check out the Unofficial Patches HOWTO.

Once a patch has been included in a released kernel, or has been obsoleted by a new patch, it is moved to the Obsolete Patches Page.

Check out Clifford Wolf's Linux Kernel Patch Archive system for a better maintained collection of patches. Kurt Huwig's Linux Mama website is another good place to look for patches for the stable kernel release - including his famous "Big Mama Patch".

Other patch collections:

SunSite
The Linux Resource Exchange
Rik van Riel's memory management patch collection
