Hi

First a disclaimer. I'm new to testing bits of linux/openSUSE and not too
confident that all of the following is correct so I hope you can bear with me. 
:)

I was testing systemd successfully using the default kernel from the standard
repos (non-factory) until a recent change in systemd caused a problem. I've been
getting an error at boot time saying that the "/sys/fs/cgroup" can't be mounted.
At that point I switched to the 2.6.36 rc from Kernel Head and that worked OK.
The problem with that kernel is there's no kernel sources available (unless I'm
missing something obvious) for that release, as I use VMware products on my
workstation most of the time I can't use that kernel or systemd. I'd like to get
it working again on the current kernel, if possible.

In doing some research I found the following on lkml.org:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/7/22/384 and current versions of systemd now mount
cgroupfs on /sys/fs/cgroup - I suppose my questions are: can that patch be
backported to the current 2.6.34 kernel; if it can be backported how do I get it
actioned?

Regards

Bill
