No you don't have to patch the kernel, but I think you will not be able to insert QoS as a module into a kernel not prepared for this. In other words, you need to recompile your entire kernel and not just the modules. Did you run depmod -a to recompile your module dependencies? If you did so, send your kernel .config, and we'll see if you are missing anything. > Meanwhile, I am even willing to get shaping going on other platforms.
