- Package: mdetect
-
- Obtained from: openlinux.org CVS repository
- http://www.openlinux.org/lizard/devel-faq.html
-
- Upstream author: Caldera Systems, Inc.

- Debian package author: Branden Robinson
-
- Debian modifications to upstream sources:
- Sundry. This is essentially a fork of a very small portion of Caldera's
- "Lizard" system installation tool. Since mdetect does what I need it to,
- and because of the licensing, I do not intend to track upstream
- development.
-
- Richard Hirst supplied code to save and restore line settings on serial
- port devices.
