> Newbie question...how do I apply a patch in buildroot ?

There's nothing specific to Buildroot here, it's just a matter of
applying a patch just like with any other source code.

Just in case you're not familiar with applying patches, here is how you
can do that in a nutshell:

 1) Fetch the patch

    wget -O matchbox-fix.patch http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/patch/?id=51ef5b81224c243aa7f937c4690b1a120c81ccbc

 2) Go the Buildroot directory

    cd /the/path/to/your/buildroot/directory/

 3) Apply the patch

    cat /the/path/to/the/patch/matchbox-fix.path | patch -p1

Does that answer your question ?
