    Please try to be more detailed.
    Which commands are you running, and what's the output of each of them?

    kdb

    these are the .rej files i am getting when i am adding the kdb patches using

    patch -p1 <kdb-v4.4-2.6.18-common-1


    1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file Documentation/kdb/kdb.mm.rej
    The next patch would create the file Documentation/kdb/kdb_bp.man,

    Normally this happens if you apply a patch to the wrong kernel version. Make sure your kernel version is correct for the patch.

    kdb

    Hi ,

    I am using debian kernel version 2.6.18( 2.6.18 source code)
    and the patch is kdb-v4.4-2.6.18-common-1 which will suite for this version.

    then why it is not matching with the existing kernel patch
