the CVS version of kgdb.sourceforge.net? i fetched it, but it still does
not apply:

------------
evil at sheep:/usr/src/linux-2.6-build$ head -n3 Makefile
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 5
evil at sheep:/usr/src/linux-2.6-build$ cat \
/usr/local/src/kgdb/kgdb-2/core.patch | patch -p1 --dry-run
patching file include/linux/sched.h
patching file include/linux/module.h
can't find file to patch at input line 66
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

....and so on.
hm, i'll go then with the "-lite" patches, they apply cleanly.

hm, i'll see what it gives with the lite-patches now.
