| Any idea? I thought that maybe my kernel source is not the vanilla one. A=
nyway it's the Slackware 9.0 default kernel and I always supposed it to be =
the Linus Torvalds original kernel.

If you didn't download the kernel source from kernel.org or one of its
mirrors, try doing that first, then apply the patch and try again. Make
sure you always include ARCH=3Dum for all of your make commands inside the
kernel source tree.

If it still doesn't work, then you have a problem.
