[gentoo-user] What's going to break, if vanilla kernel is used?

[Alexander Skwar]

Hello!

As suspend/resume doesn't work with the kernel shipped with
Dapper, I'd like to try using the suspend2 kernel patch from
<http://suspend2.net/>. But the patch cannot be applied cleanly
against the Ubuntu sources.

Because of that, I'd like to use a vanilla kernel. But the
Ubuntu patches are there for a reason, I'd suppose. Is this
reason documented somewhere? Or, put differently, what do the
Ubuntu patches add to the vanilla kernel and what's not going
to work anymore after using a vanilla kernel?

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar

Whoops... Sorry, wrong list. Please disregard the previous message - sometimes
I wish, there were a "Cancel" feature for mails as well...

I'm looking at Ubuntu. They've got some nice things. One thing that's
nice, is the Network Manager; especially for WLAN things. Also, for
some reason, Google Earth causes my Gentoo system to crash. In Ubuntu,
the system is stable, even after having used GE for some time.

But, more importantly, suspend-to-disk and resume isn't working properly
with my machine in Ubuntu. In Gentoo, that's a no-brainer.
