mmX are Andrew Morton's (akpm) patches to the 2.5 and 2.6.0-test kernels.
They are usually released as a test bed for bleeding edge stuff before
being applied to Linus' main tree, and (for me at least) they are often
more stable than Vanilla testx kernels, or contain some very "recent" bug
fixes.

How to obtain them:

* Some distributions automate the process (e.g. gentoo emerge mm-sources)

* Go to ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm
 see in the patches directory. Download/unpack the required 2.6....-patch
and apply using patch -p1 < filename. You may want to copy your previous
.config file (from test6) and type "make oldconfig". Compile your kernel
as usual.

* mmX kernels are usually announced on the Linux Kernel mailing list:
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0309.3/index.html

e.g.
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0309.3/0926.html
