Is this correct? No, the same patch applies (IIRC) even on that kernel. However, you might get a better experience with 2.4.28-bs2 patch from my homepage. Just don't try compiling it with GCC 4.0 (I presume it's not your case), since 2.4 doesn't support it. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
