Modular Sound 2.0.36

Hello,

Via ftp.redhat.com ( and ftpsearch.lycos.com ) I found in
sound/patches-current/modular-sound-2.0.36-2.diff.gz
When applied to the kernel 2.0.36 source tree ( the real thing, not the
RH5.2 pre-2.0.36 ) it gives rejects on Config.in ( /drivers/sound/Config.in )

Anyone here has experience on this subject ? Am I following the right
procedure to get modular sound on 2.0.36 ?

It seems to work OK here on a plain 2.0.36 - there's a couple of patches with offsets (I'll throw a newer version on the FTP site that doesn't do this), but it goes through clean. What version of patch are you using?

It isn't clear to me against what the
sound/patches-current/modular-sound-2.0.36-2.diff.gz should be patched.

What I failed to reveal in my posting is that I'm trying to get beta
modular sound drivers from
the 2.1.xxx kernel onto 2.0.36. In particular the Turtle Beach Pinnacle /
Fiji driver.
( Andrew Veliath http://www.rpi.edu/~veliaa/pinlinux.html )

The mentioned patch file puts the 'extra' 2.1.xxx drivers in the
drivers/sound directory ( looks
good at first glance ). Only patching the Config.in fails. I tried to put the chunk of code for the
Turtle Beach Pinnacle / Fiji into it ... manually. Which works except that tkparse doesn't
accept the 'string' keyword. ( make mrproper ; make xconfig ).

I'll check the version of patch ... it should be the one that came with the
rh5.1.
