Beers? Sears? Cheers? its Cheers.. sorry for the typo. from yesterday uptil now, This is what I have tried, bluez is installed on my newly installed RedHat Linux 9.0, well...I now have RedHat too along with Knoppix, as knoppix kernel had too be patched and I did not have the 2.4.20 tree in with my knoppix. I am now able to successfully l2ping my mobile, here is what goes wrong. # rfcomm 0 00:02:EE:60:97:6E 1 Can't open RFCOMM control socket: No such file or directory now I will got and figure out how to apply the patch called patch-2.4.20-mh4 from www.holtmann.org/linux/kernel/ , when I try #patch -p0 < /tmp/patch-2.4.20-mh4 from the /usr/src directory, it asks me the file name to patch, here is where I get stuck due to my inexprience with kernel patching and/or recompiling, I would be glad if somebody might tell me what shall I write at filename to be patched. I will write the details regarding the error/warning given by patch command, after I boot into Linux.
