I modify them individually each time a new 2.4 kernel is released (which happened only once so far, for the 2.4.22 kernel). If you need to patch a kernel that is not supported (that is, neither 2.4.21 nor 2.4.22), here is how to proceed. 1* Use i2c's mkpatch.pl to generate the core patch for your kernel, and apply it. 2* Apply each additional patch individually. You'll find them here: http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/devel/i2c/#list You'll want to apply all the patches but "core i2c subsystem", since you'll already have done this part. Wether you'll use the patches intended for linux 2.4.21 or 2.4.22 depends on which kernel you are targetting. The nearest, the more likely the patches are likely to apply cleanly. If they don't, you'll have to dig into the code ;) I'd like to underline that all this is already mentioned on my webpage. If you think that some details should be added or some changes made to make things clearer, let me know. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
