This is probably longer then you want but here's my $0.10 :)
Grab a vanilla source tree from www.kernel.org, build yourself a kernel
or two for a PC, try removing as much stuff as you can and build it
specific to your PC and it's needs. Then grab the TS source for their
2.6 kernel (2.6.24 I think?) and check out it's .config. You can copy
that .config to your 2.6.29 tree and run make oldconfig which will ask
you about any new options in 2.6.29, or do it by hand in menuconfig and
see if your 2.6.29 tree really is a TS release.
