ok, great. i did as said and the output was some "succeeded", some "rejected" --and I have an output file called "orinoco.h.rej". "make config" wants my kernel source and I don't seem to have it under /usr/src/* . How do I get it and what version should I download--the one for my current kernel (2.4.2-2)? I don't see it at rpmfind.net or google. > -----Original Message----- > From: plug-discuss-admin@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > [mailto:plug-discuss-admin@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us]On Behalf Of Kevin > Brown > Sent: Thursday, May 08, 2003 8:42 PM > To: plug-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > Subject: Re: how to patch this? > > > > Using RH 7.1. > > > > I want to install/patch my orinoco drivers as specified here: > > http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinocoinfo.html > > > > I guess the actual code in the patch is here: > > http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinoco-09b-packet-1.diff. > > > > I have no idea what to do with this code?
