List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Ron: first off, I do recommend using regular kernel trees, like everyone else has recommended. However, I'd like to know the error message. Usually if patching custom trees with speakup is going to fail, something crucial will fail to patch and that's that. the fact that all x86 patches worked and it then failed to compile is curious and I for one would like to know what failed. Geoff.
