If you're applying the gobohide patch to a stock kernel then you'll need to download the Linux recipe, uncompress it and take the patch from there. You can also take the patch directly from our recipe search tool: http://recipes.gobolinux.org/r/?list=Linux&ver=2.6.32.3-r1 Once you've saved the patch file to your hard disk (assuming you saved it to /tmp/01-gobohide.patch), cd to the kernel sources dir (eg: cd /usr/src/linux) and patch the kernel tree using the command "patch -i /tmp/01-gobohide.patch -p1". Then run 'make menuconfig', go to file systems and make sure that GoboHide is selected. After that the standard procedures to compile the kernel apply.
