In the interest of being usefull, I have added the missing annotation and am attaching the new patch. > I did mention that I use version 5 because version 6 doesn't play > nicely with this chip. Correct. However, when I saw the patch non-applying, the thought that there may be other patches did not even cross my mind. I suppose that, as an LFS user, you are used to dealing with (so to speak) broken patches and, more generally, broken software which does not compile. :) -- Svi moji e-mailovi su kriptografski potpisani.
