I use quilt to keep the patch series up to date and do the change as a relatively large series (30 or so) to make it easier for me to cope with changes in the kernel. When I do the next release I'll make a tar ball of the patch series available. Of course, if your eager to start right away I could make the 2.6.17-rc4-mm1 one available? > I see only combined patches > on the SourceForge site. Yes, I'm trying to be not too greedy in my disk space use :-) Peter -- Peter Williams pwil3058@bigpond.net.au "Learning, n.
