About this patch, I cannot install it. I started over from a clean linux 
2.4.22 kernel and applied the patches. First I used ./runme base and 
applied everything I could. then I used ./runme extra and in the extra 
patches I only tried to apply the nfnetlinc patch (thus I did not 
install the two conflicting patches - ctstat and netfilter-docbook). 
Still, it does not work. Is there any other required/conflicted patch 
that I am not aware of?
