It appears that this patch is designed against 2.6.22. Do you want me to downgrade from 2.6.24.2 to 2.6.22 to try this? Applying it against 2.6.24.3 resulted in the following: ~/linux-2.6.24.3# patch -p1 < ../random-test.patch patching file arch/um/drivers/random.c Hunk #1 succeeded at 7 with fuzz 2 (offset -1 lines).
