Sorry: the kernel.org sources.

Could you point me to a URL please? Would I have to remove the
patches 1-3 (in my example) prior to using this patch against 2.6.21?
I've been using the incremental patches from
<http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/incr/>, but they only
work "within" a release cycle (2.6.21.1-2, for example). Not exactly
what I'm thinking of for my slow box.
