Sorry.. Not sure if the article is online anyplace. The only link I 
know of is the one for the resources used to make the patch:

http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=7754

It is November 2004, issue #127, pp. 66

Hmm. I did screw up. I copied the link to someone else's patch. The one 
for the articles author, Leigh Orf, is here:

http://research.orf.cx/

Oops! I shouldn't have been quite so enthusiastic about posting and 
double checked which link I was posting. Many, many apologies.
