Dear Tejun, I am not very good at linux and just enough to get by. I have tried to use your patch by issuing the command 'patch -p1 < combined.patch' and I receive this msvlsi63:~/libata-tj-2.6.18.1-20061020 # patch -p1 < combined.patch can't find file to patch at input line 5 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |Index: work/drivers/scsi/Kconfig |=================================================================== |--- work.orig/drivers/scsi/Kconfig 2006-10-20 10:48:25.000000000 +0900 |+++ work/drivers/scsi/Kconfig 2006-10-20 10:48:35.000000000 +0900 -------------------------- File to patch: Then, I opened combined.path and look for line 5 source "drivers/scsi/megaraid/Kconfig.megaraid" which point out the file I don't have. Am I missing something? I have Opensuse 10.2 and Norco DS-1220 disk array which has Silicon Image 3726 port multiplier. I don't have any driver install but Suse has recognized the PCI card with Silicon Image 3124. Thanks! -------------------------------------------------------------- Chia-Ming Liu, Ph.D. Mixed Signal VLSI Design Group Advanced Technology Research Center 235 Oklahoma State University Website: http://cottonmouth.ecen.okstate.edu US Mail: 202 Engineering South Stillwater, OK 74078 Phone: 405-744-6241, 405-744-4580 Fax: 405-744-9198 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
