Ok, my turn.
I've got a driver source (orinoco_cs) that offers too little diagnostic
capabilities, i.e. scanning support (needed to display a list of access
points with iwlist) and monitor mode (needed by kismet and, I guess,
airsnort). There are patches to add both to the driver source.
The problem: they're both diff's from the same source. Once I apply one,
the source is changed and patching will fail for the other. How the hell
does one apply two patches to the same source? I thought of patching two
copies of the source with different patches, then making a diff of the two
directories, editing it appropriately, then applying to a third source...
This appears too complicated (and would probably not work as intended) -
there must be a better way. Anyone?
Cheers
