Yes, you are trying to use patch-o-matic on a RH kernel. That isn't tested and won't be supported. Many patches in patch-o-matic requires that you apply all patches in pending and submitted (./runme pending and apply all those patches). This will almost certainly fail with a RH kernel. You are on your own. -- /Martin
