I hear you and I am applying the patch from 2.6.30 to 2.6.30.1 as of now.  I know your frustrations, but Fedora is staying a bit behind as of now because apparently many things were changed from 2.6.29 to 2.6.30?  I don't know the exact reasons, but I understand where you are coming from and I agree with you.  Is Fedora countering the saying "Latest and Greatest"?  I know that on rawhide a 2.6.31.rcX kernel is being run, that is where the latest and greatest always is, but Fedora Stable should not be so far behind?  Should it?
