If you haven’t heard about the new ~200 line patch which, for some users, has improved interactivity on the desktop, you can read about it here.
I have released a masked version of gentoo-sources (gentoo-sources-2.6.36-r2) which contains the backport to this kernel version written by the original author.
If anyone wants to try this patch on 2.6.36, you can just unmask gentoo-sources-2.6.36-r2, and try it out.
