Fedora Kernel question



Hello,

I received for Christmas an HP Mini 311. Has an Atom 270 processor with the Nvidia ION chipset. Works well, I like it, but there are some compatibility issues with Linux. It unfortunately has one of the Broadcom 802.11 b/g chipsets, 4312 I believe, that is only partially supported. I could not get Fedora 12 to boot. Most of the time it locked up when udev started. Neither do any of the recent rawhide live images boot. The most recent Fedora that boots is Fedora 11. I installed Fedora 11 with the original release kernel-PAE-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i686. After I went through and had all the updates run kernel-PAE-2.6.30.10-105.fc11.i686 was installed. That kernel also locks the machine up on boot up.

What I'm looking for is all the kernels that have ran through the Fedora update system between the original kernel and the one currently now in updates for Fedora 11. I've looked through the fedoraproject.org website and done some google searches but no luck. Does anyone know where I can find these Fedora 11 update kernel packages?

I did open a bugzilla report on the issue, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551747. But would like to be able to provide as much information as possible.

Thanks,
Jason
