has anyone gotten this to work? i have tried the stable 2.6.9 patch and the two 2.6.10 and 2.6.11-r1 patch and all get the same error at the begining:
laptux linux # /tmp/software-suspend-2.1.5.14-for-2.6.11-rc1/apply /tmp/software-suspend-2.1.5.14-for-2.6.11-rc1 Applying 100-kdb-v4.4-2.6.10-common-1 ... 100-kdb-v4.4-2.6.10-common-1 will not apply cleanly. Reverse applied patches [Yn]? n
if i hit no it just drops me to a prompt and doesnt continue. is there a better way?
The "apply" script is just applying each of the 1XX patches to your kernel. If you look at the script, you'll see that a return of anything other than 0 is considered an error. It turns out that some of the patches apply correctly except with a small fuzz factor -- the consequence of that is the "apply" script thinks the patch failed, when in fact things are okay. Just manually apply the patches in the directory, and you should be fine.
...oh, and just in case, do a --dry-run first. ;)
