I unpacked the source again. Then, the following happens. Script started on Sat Aug 3 17:29:10 2002 root at linserver:~# cd /usr/src/linux/include root at linserver:/usr/src/linux/include# patch -p0 </storage/stuff/kernel/miscdevice.patch can't find file to patch at input line 3 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |--- miscdevice.h.orig Sat Aug 3 21:31:25 2002 |+++ miscdevice.h Sat Aug 3 21:39:25 2002 -------------------------- File to patch: root at linserver:/usr/src/linux/include# exit Script done on Sat Aug 3 17:30:01 2002 I've done this both before patching speakup, and after patching speakup into the source, using a fresh tree both times. Any suggestions? Thanks. Greg On Sat, Aug 03, 2002 at 03:56:52PM -0600, William F.
