That has not so recent stuff. More recent .src.rpm's can be found in
version specific repositories (location changed when I upgraded my build
system):

For example, for fc8:

On kernels:

I've been compiling and trying newer kernels. A couple of days ago I
thought that 2.6.26.6-rt10 was good until I got a complete freeze this
morning (well, after upgrading to rt11, maybe that was it?). Still, much
better than what versions > 2.6.24 had been so far. Sigh. 2.6.24.7-rtxx
is so far the best, but at CCRMA we have seen X segfaults with that one
under _fc9_. On the other hand I have been running 2.6.26.6-rt11 for the
whole day on my fc8 laptop with no mishaps so far.
