Er, it precisely _is_ what you want to do. You have 2.6.29.4, and the patch for 2.6.29.5. What you can do is to download the patch which takes 2.6.29 to 2.6.29.4 and the patch which takes 2.6.29 to 2.6.29.5, and apply the _difference_ between them to your tree consisting of 2.6.29.4. I hope it's clear, or I can try to explain it again. Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
