Hmmm. I think most people bring a kernel up to current before adding additional patches. I doubt anyone bothers to check funny orderings on the update. At the very least you will probably get a few hunks applied at some offset. Might work, but if it doesn't, go back and do the patching in order against a clean source tree. My personal preference is 1 standard kernel version update patches 2 crypto api 3 freeswan If there are other patches I want to use, I'll usually apply them between 1 and 2 if they're fairly general, or after 3 if they are fairly specific. -- ------------------------------------------------------ Use Linux: A computer Dale Amon, CEO/MD is a terrible thing Village Networking Ltd to waste.
