Hi there,
I am trying to patch the current 2.6.11-1-k7 kernel (2.6.11-7) with the
kerenel-patch-suspend2 package. When I run
make-kpkg --added-patches suspend2 --config menuconfig
--append-to-version -suspend2 configure kernel_image modules_image
I get the following error message:
E: no applicable suspend2 patch found for this kernel. With a recent
E: kernel, this usually means that I have not yet found the time to

E: free to inform me whether the patch still applies. If you are
E: trying to patch an older kernel, you are likely out of luck. Please

so I'm just wondering, where in the suspend2 patch files do I find the
parameter that controls which kernel versions are permitted to be
patched? I am happy to attempt the patch, but since I'm not familiar
with the low-level patch tools I'd rather stay within the make-kpkg
framework.
THanks much!

just to answer my own question; I did this:
dpkg -L kernel-patch-suspend2 | xargs grep -i no applicable suspend2\
patch found for this kernel
which gave me the relevant lines, which were swiftly modified. It was
in the main patch file, which could be found in various places, mosti
mportantly:
/usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.11/apply/suspend2
presumably one could try to use the patch on 2.6.12 as well, now that
it's out.
