Suse 10.2 kernel 2.6.18 to 2.6.20 patch giving errors
 

Hello I am trying to update my suse 10.2 standard kernel 2.6.18.2-34 to 2.6.20.I am using this how to http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_suse If I understand this how to correctly I have to take 2.6.18 and patch it to 2.6.20 then import my config into it.
When I do a dry run with this command while in the /usr/src/linux dir (I have changed the link to point to 2.6.18) 'bzip2 -dc /usr/src/patch-2.6.20.bz2 | patch -p1 --dry-run' I get this message

can't find file to patch at input line 3565
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff --git a/Documentation/hwmon/k8temp b/Documentation/hwmon/k8temp
|index 30d123b..0005c71 100644
|--- a/Documentation/hwmon/k8temp
|+++ b/Documentation/hwmon/k8temp
--------------------------
File to patch:

I checked and k8temp does not exist in 2.6.18 dir, what does this mean? Also am I using the correct files for patching the files I downloaded from http://www.kernel.org/ is 'linux-2.6.18.tar.bz2' full source and 'patch-2.6.20-rc7-final.bz2'?
The reason I am trying to patch is to get my sound card to work it is a hda_intel with conexant codec, I have already patched ALSA to 14rc2 and debugged my DSDT from everything I have read the only thing left is patching the kernel. Any help or links would be greatly appreciated.

Got my problem solved with ketchup. My sound problem is also sorted but not because of the kernel patch. Thanks alot GrueMaster
