In order to gain support for a Matrox Millenium G200 I tried to patch
using the Xf86 - 3.3.3-3.3.3.1.diff file. I am running FreeBSD
3.0-RELEASE (GENERIC).

The instructions in the .diff say :

*****
To apply this patch, run the following from the directory containing
your
'xc' directory:

    patch -p -E < 3.3.3-3.3.3.1.diff
*****

For me this is the /usr/X11R6/ directory (home of xc). When the patch is
applied using the above command line it runs and then stops with the
question :-

File to patch:

What is the 'File to patch:' ? It's not <rtn> or * so what am I supposed
to enter here?

TIA,
Chris R.
