[Click] Problems Installing Click Kernel Module

Hello,
I've run click in user-mode, but to accomplish some work I'm trying to install
the kernel module on a machine.  It has 4 processors and is running
2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp.

I've tried following the kernel install instructions, but am getting an error:

# patch -p0 -b < /root/clickinstall/click-1.5.0/etc/linux-2.6.16.13-patch
can't find file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff -ru ../linux-2.6.16.13/drivers/input/serio/i8042-ppcio.h
./drivers/input/serio/i8042-ppcio.h
|--- ../linux-2.6.16.13/drivers/input/serio/i8042-ppcio.h       2006-05-02
14:38:44.000000000 -0700
|+++ ./drivers/input/serio/i8042-ppcio.h        2006-05-02 22:59:17.000000000
-0700
--------------------------
File to patch:

At this point it prompts me for a file... of what nature I'm not sure.
I'm running "patch" from /usr/src/kernels/ directory which contains 
2.6.9-22.0.2.EL-smp-i686, which I assumed was the correct location to run this
from.

Am I running the patch from the right directory, and in the right way?  I'm
eager to get this working, and any direction or help is appreciated.
Thanks,
 - David Moore
