Most likely yes. In those two lines the code is using the variables declared 
as "struct user_desc *" or "struct modify_ldt_ldt_s *" (depending on whether 
you applied or not "user-desc" from the series).

Since you use Gentoo like me, omit the "user-desc" patch. If it still doesn't 
work, let us know.

*Jeff*, a side note: in

http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/work/current/2.6/2.6.16-rc2/patches/user-desc

these two prototypes have no chance of compiling if you don't add "struct" 
before "modify_ldt_ldt_s" - enable CONFIG_MODE_TT to see this.

-int do_set_thread_area_tt(struct user_desc *info)

Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
