There is probably a reason its failing.. When you copy and paste it into a
file you are using whitespaces and not tabs..
So if the patch is in the root of my kernel source this worked against
2.6.20-rc5 at least so I'm guessing it should against 2.6.19.1
patch -p1 -l < file.patch
From the patch man page
-l or --ignore-whitespace
Match patterns loosely, in case tabs or spaces have been munged
in your files. Any sequence of one or more blanks in the patch file matches
any sequence in
the original file, and sequences of blanks at the ends of lines
are ignored. Normal characters must still match exactly. Each line of the
context must still
match a line in the original file.
Good luck

So i thought of copying and pasting the pci-e v2 patch below and try to
patch it but I get 3 failed hunks (against 2.6.20-rc5).. I ran patch -p1 <
pcie.patch.
