Dear Eugene;
I have downloaded diff file for both kernel 2.6 and
2.4 on http://kernel.ebshome.net, I can succesfully
patch diff file for 2.4(emac_3-2.4-8.diff) and it's
working (very) good but I can't patch the file for
kernel 2.6.11 (emac_3-2.6-9.diff)(on kernel.org).
Some .rej files created by patch.(ie mii.rej). Which
kernel source must I use as base?
Thanks alot
Emre

emac_3-2.6-9.diff is against 2.6 BK tree as of 2005-03-07 11:01pm PST.
I'll try to find some time this weekend and re-diff (if needed) 
against latest BK, in the meantime, try resolving those rejects - 
mii.rej shouldn't be very difficult.

If you applying patch to the 2.6.11 _release_ (not current BK tree), 
try emac_3-2.6-8.diff.

OK, I just checked, emac_3-2.6-9.diff should apply cleanly on 
2.6.12-pre1.

Doh, it's too late for me, 2.6.12-rc1, of course.

I have patched emac_3-2.6-9.diff against kernel 2.6.11
release version and fixed the rejections, but the
problem that I faced is not only from the .rej files,I
have succeeded to compile the kernel and load the
target, but it take long time to boot and there was
some errors printed on the console, I think the patch
corrupted some other files
And also tested ethernet performance with the patched
kernel, it was not as good as 2.4 version, especialy
there was a huge performance decrease on the receive
side.
Second (big) problem is, I dont know how to log on to
BK tree :) 
Maybe I can patch emac_3-2.6-8.diff against kernel
2.6.11, but I dont have this file(It is not on your
web site at the present.), where can I download it?
Thanks alot.
Emre
