patch -p 0 < /usr/src/lowlatency-2.2.16-A0

One note - this may or may not work well with kernel sources provided by a distribution. RedHat in particularly doesn't distribute the standard sources but rather just the architecture specific portions + patches. Getting clean sources from ftp.kernel.org may be necessary.

  I could use a hand applying a patch to the kernel source.  I'm attempting

to apply the "low-latency" patch. (http://people.redhat.com/mingo/lowlatency-patches/)

  I have the kernel source in /usr/src/linux and the patch at

/usr/src/lowlatency-2.2.16-A0

  I've been typing various mutations of

  cd /usr/src/linux
  patch /usr/src/lowlatency-2.2.16-A0 -p0
