Oh not so true! -- or my 'patch' program is on drugs
I put the patch that was posted Gerd Knorr into my 2.0.30 kernel
thinking vidoe.S was not changed that much -- but it has/was
thats the reason my "patch" is not in "patch" format
because it was pretty simple code to add to 2.0.30 but
with 'patch' it broke zImage/zlilo/install -- either way enjoy
