Yes you're reading wrong, Rob, it's a 2.4.19 patch (to upgrade a 2.4.18=20 kernel), not 2.4.29. ;-) Ali, from this message it looks like you're using a VERY old version of=20 the original patch-o-matic (not patch-o-matic-ng) that was intended for=20 older 2.4 kernels only and was replaced by patch-o-matic-ng. You should=20 use a more recent patch-o-matic-ng (pom-ng) which is intended for recent=20 2.4 kernels (above 2.4.18) and 2.6 kernels. As stated by the 2005-Jan-30=20 announce in the news section of the Netfilter website, there are now no=20 more pom-ng stable releases (I guess a patch is considered stable when=20 it's included in the kernel and removed from pom-ng) but only daily=20 snapshots available here : ftp://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/patch-o-matic-ng/snapshot/ or http://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/patch-o-matic-ng/snapshot/ Avoid the older pom-ng stable release versions in=20 http://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/patch-o-matic-ng/, they're broken. And of course, apply only the patches you really need.
