Good places to look for patches are usually: * upstream message boards or mailing lists * upstream version control (CVS/SVN/GIT/...) * downstream (distro, ...) mailing lists (try a search engine) Failing that, try to figure out what the change was (e.g. by searching for the missing identifier with a search engine) and patch the module accordingly, then try to share the patch with other people. Here's an example: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2007-January/msg00175.html In this case, I've just taken the patches from the rt2570 CVS at the rt2x00 project and ported them to Ralink's latest official driver release.
