It seems i cannot test current net-2.6, because it is broken for me 
on USB part (fixed by workaround in init scripts), HPET totally broken in 
net-2.6, but works for latest main git from torvalds tree.
I have to wait when net-2.6 rebased to current torvalds tree, then i will try 
to test.

Make a clone of Linus's tree, then pull in the net-2.6 tree.

This is always how you should test things especially if you want to
make sure you have whatever non-networking bug fixes your machine
might require.
