How are fedora kernels different from kernel.org vanilla kernels?
They are heavily patched.
How are the rpm's made?
Get the kernel src.rpm and inspect it, at least the kernel.spec file. You'll see then.

Hi I dowloaded and installed kernel-sourcecode-2.6.8.1-521
I went to /usr/src/linux/2.6.8.1-521 and did not find the usual directories, (BUILD, SPEC, etc.) I found rather the sourcecode.
Does it mean that I have to download kernel-2.6.8.1-521.src.rpm ?
What is the difference between the kernel-sourcecode packages and the *.src.rpm packages?
If I want to recompile the kernel (I might have to do it to solve a ACPI DSDT problem with a laptop), what should I used, kernel-sourcecode or
kernel src.rpm?
