I have read several posts regarding applying patches to the stock fedora kernel source. However, when I try to apply the netraverse win4lin patch to the fedora kernel source it fails with hunk problems. Has anyone else solved this problem or do I need to continue to use a generic kernel for kernel dot org. John

Hi,

I have read several posts regarding applying patches to the stock fedora kernel source. However, when I try to apply the netraverse win4lin patch to the fedora kernel source it fails with hunk problems. Has anyone else solved this problem or do I need to continue to use a generic kernel for kernel dot org.

I'm using Win4Lin here on the bog standard kernel and it's working. Okay, it's dog slow, but it works. From what I can see, the patches are for the vanilla 2.6 kernel and not for the current 2.6.10/11 kernels. It may be possible to hand patch, but unless you know what you're doing, I wouldn't recommend it. TTFN Paul -- "In an urban society, everything connects.

If your patch does not cleanly apply you will have to manually adjust it. There is no other way around it when not using the source the patch is made for. So have a look at the *.rej file when patching fails and then at the original and patch files to see what is different.
