Actually, I just did a checkout this morning before knowing about your changes and ran into a problem while patching the kernel source. I am using a fresh 2.4.5 kernel tree and running checkout for the first time on this newly formatted machine. I got the following Makefile.rej in /usr/src/linux/drivers/char: *************** *** 232,234 **** qtronixmap.c: qtronixmap.map set -e ; loadkeys --mktable $< | sed -e 's/^static *//' > $@ --- 244,247 ---- qtronixmap.c: qtronixmap.map set -e ; loadkeys --mktable $< | sed -e 's/^static *//' > $@ + Can I go along with this error condition or do I need to upgrade the kernel to 2.4.9 to get around this?
