Hi,

I have noticed that there is a kernel-2.6.9-22.0.1.EL.i686.rpm update in 
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/41/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/ 
but no kernel-2.6.9-22.0.1.EL.src.rpm in 
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/41/SRPMS/vendor/errata/.

On my machine a kernel compiled specifically for the AMD Athlon seems to 
work much better than the generic i686 RHEL kernel.

In the mean time I have downloaded a 22.0.1.EL src rpm from 
ftp.redhat.com and compiled that. As far as I can tell there is no 
difference in content between the kernel source packages from 
ftp.redhat.com and ftp.scientificlinux.org, only the signature is different.

Can anyone tell me if there are any other subtle differences between the 
kernel source packages from ftp.redhat.com and ftp.scientificlinux.org?

Thanks,
