The kernelpatch kpatch1.3.72 you can use directly for kernels 1.3.72 .. ???
but it should be easy to apply this patch to all kernels.
By older kernels 'sk->protinfo.af_ipx.' must become 'sk->' .
After applying this patch please rebuild mars_nwe (make clean)
for getting notice of new ioctl call 'SIOCIPXNCPCONN'.
This patch is only necessary to speed up mars_nwe. (ca. 30 .. 50 % )
Perhaps this patch will get a place in the kerneldistribution one day. :)
This kernelpatch was originally designed by Volker Lendecke.
