Sorry about that. That's why I always send as attachments.
Do you have similar problems when using Mozilla Thunderbird?

tbird works when following the instructions at
http://mbligh.org/linuxdocs/Email/Clients/Thunderbird
or (simpler) use an External Editor plugin.


And have you checked System.map to verify the DMI functions aren't there?

Nope.  I expect(ed) you to do that, i.e., make sure that the patch
does that the description says that it does.

Here is the DMI patch again, written against linux-2.6.23-rc8,
with some of the #ifdef CONFIG_DMI's removed and moved
to include/linux/dmi.h. Putting them there in the way I've done
ensures that you don't have to put #ifdef CONFIG_DMI
around each dmi_check_machine() and that you don't
have to apply little patches to so many device drivers.

Damaged as the patch is, I was able to apply it by using
'patch -l' (ignore whitespace) + some fuzz.  Not something that
Linus or Andrew would or should do.

I built and booted the kernel, it's running fine (x86_32 notebook).
