    Summary: The Linux kernel (the core of the Linux operating system)
    Description: 
    This package contains the Linux kernel that is used to boot and run
    your system.
    
    Most hardware drivers for this kernel are built as modules.  Some of
    these drivers are built separately from the kernel; they are available
    in separate packages (kernel-modules-*-ltsp-client).
    
    The "ltsp-client" flavour of kernel packages is almost vanilla kernel
    adding swap-over-net patch by Peter Zijlstra to fix networked swap
    issues.
    
    It's trimmed down towards diskless network-bootable thin clients
    (e.g. ALTSP) and is rather unsuitable for anything else.

    - 2.6.32.59 (thanks, Willy)
    - patches:
      + replaced drm33 with 2.6.35 code backport by led@
        with an additional nouveau fixup from 2.6.38
        and a few more useful bits
    March 5, 2012 Michael Shigorin 2.6.32-alt3
    - 2.6.32.58
    - config-i586:
      + CONFIG_FB_*:
        - dropped all specific drivers
        - enabled uvesafb just in case
        - disabled firmware EDID
      + CONFIG_DRM_*:
        - enabled KMS for radeon by default
        - enabled nouveau and vmwgfx (drm33 staging)
      + a few more staging drivers (usbip, et131x, slicoss)
      + disabled USB HID Boot Protocol drivers (not recommended)
    - thanks led@ as usual

    - patches:
      + feat-drivers-block--ramzswap (and feat-mm-swapfile--notify)
    - config-i586:
      + io scheduler switched from deadline to noop
      + switch back from CONFIG_PREEMPT to CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY
        (looks like the former doesn't play nice with net-swap
        while the latter does)
    - mostly led@'s advice again
