IPv6 over Token-Ring in Linux

[hermans@touro.edu (Herman Strom)]

Hi! Jochen,

I am running Linux-2.2.12. I aplied the patch that you've recommended.
And this is what I got:

[lyonb://usr/src/linux#]> patch -p1 < ../tr_ipv6.patch
patching file drivers/net/ibmtr.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1621.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file
drivers/net/ibmtr.c.rej
patching file drivers/net/net_init.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 524 (offset 1 line).
Hunk #2 FAILED at 587.
Hunk #3 FAILED at 642.
2 out of 3 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file
drivers/net/net_init.c.rej
patching file include/linux/if_tr.h
patch: **** malformed patch at line 59: LINUX

What did I do wrong?

BTW, Are you the Jochen that wrote this patch? If yes, and you want
the details of the accident. I can send them to you.

Thanks ahead,

Bye,

Herm

On http://www.linuxtr.net, there is a patch for 2.2.12 to allow IPv6 over
Token Ring.

Cheers,
