Hi all,
     I need to install Gobohide tool in my Fedora core 11 system and i
download the software from http://www.gobolinux.org and extracted.Then i
navigated to the GoboHide/bin directory and executed the ./gobohide -h
command.The output is:
*
[r...@localhost bin]# ls
go  gobohide
[r...@localhost bin]# ./gobohide -h go
ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[r...@localhost bin]#

*Then i noticed that i need to patch Linux kernel.So how to patch linux
kernel.And from which directory i have to patch Linux kernel.And this
command is right or wrong

patch -i /path/to/gobohide.patch -p1

if i excecuted this command i get the output as:

[r...@localhost bin]# patch -i
/home/user/Download/Linux/2.6.29.1-r1/01-gobohide.patch -p1
