I've been searhing around for a week or two things relating to this issue, but there's very less those, or I'm searching with wrong keywords so sorry if there's a thread for this allready.

I suppose that at least gamers know this patch which makes possible to have 500hz mouse sampling rate on USB mouse. Everywhere I read about this seems like people doesn't have so much problems installing that patch.

Well I have problems, while compiling modules I get this error:

hid-core.c: In function `usb_hid_configure':
hid-core.c:1367: error: structure has no member named `application'
make[2]: *** [hid-core.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/usb'
make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_usb] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers'
make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2

I've tried several kernels and distros, but no, always the same error if I manage to patch the kernel.
I read some thread where they used command
patch -p0 < hid-patch-2.4.new.diff
to patch the kernel. I've tried to ask there what could cause this but no answer. Maybe this is too noob question?

Hopefully someone knows what could possible cause this error, I've tried few week now and then to get it work.

Thanks allready.

some, where you have the patch from? It looks it doesn't fit the kernel you're using. Is it possible to get different version of the patch?

The patch is from here and I have tried both to 2.4.22-## kernels.
2.4.new patch goes with patch command, but gets error while compiling. This patch I've also tried to 2.4.23.
2.4.22 didn't go with patch command.

I tried the patch and it works ok with my vanilla 2.4.22 kernel, try with patch -p1 for the 2.4.22 patch.

Are you trying with plain kernels (from kernel.org) or with kernels from your distro? Distro kernels are already patched and it's possible to apply a second pacth to th same file what sometimes leads to problems.

It worked with patch -p1 and 2.4.22 version patch.
At least modules compiled fine.
Trying to solve now if it worked
