Sorry, I don't know. We used built-in drivers for a long time on m68k and since there is not a lot of new hardware coming out, we are not really running out of space with the m68k kernels. I helped fixing some yaird problems on m68k, but everything else is over my head. If you have patches which improve the m68k situation, I could try building with them, but I don't have too much time to test things. BTW patches, what is the status with the mac patches/config? The last test build I remember fixed a few problems on non quadra machines, but created problems on my quadra, so I did not include the changes in the offical debian package. Any progress on that? Sorry, I currently don't have enough time to test this either. Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
