you simply have to grab the sources, extract them, enter the directory and apply each patch in sequence using "patch -p1 < xxxx.diff". Then you build using "make TARGET=linux26" and finally run "make install PREFIX=/usr" as root. It should overwrite your distros's binaries if they're installed at the common place. Hoping this helps, Willy
