- Please note that this is rather rude, and very restrictive.
-
- Is your patch kit going to help me with the bus mouse driver I have to patch
- in? Or make things hard?
-
- Will it work with, or cause problems for those installing the patches for
- using X386 ?
-
- Will the X386 patches be incorporated?
-
- Granted I have not seen the patchkit software, I would be happy if you
- allowed a modular approach, so that I could add a patch to the
- 'patchkit' directory, edit some central config file, and run the software.
-
- I may then select the new patch, and have it applied.
-
- Could all patches be kept in a compressed form?
