  Inside there, i found a TC folder- 31 items
I don't know where you got this file from, so I can only guess at the answers:

- tc patch - how does the TC link against the new kernel header???
tc won't "link" against the new kernel headers, but it may use them when compiling.
unless your environment is broken, it will automatically look in /usr/src/linux/include


- Where should i put the files inside the TC folder???
Which files?
If they are .diff files, you use the 'patch' program to patch them into the original tc source files.


- When i "make" to compile, it show me error and tell me to compile the kernel first???
You may need to run a top level 'make config' (menuconfig or xconfig) and 'make dep' in /usr/src/linux to setup some files correctly for your system.

- Since the tc folder have many files, which should i copy to /sbin/tc???
After you've finished the 'make' (or maybe 'make install') the Makefile will automatically copy the correct binary to /sbin/tc (or probabaly /usr/local/sbin/tc )
You don't have to do it yourself, unless you're hacking.


Please reply me as soon as possible. Very urgent!!!
Mailing lists and newsgroups aren't always the quickest source of info.. I find google faster most of the time.
