- Removed mactel patch
The removal of these patches was because a) there are no new patches available for 2.6.25 and b) I am trying to reduce the amount of patching, especially if it only benefits a few people or can be potentially dangerous.
As far as I know, the mactel patch is required for some hardware support on intel-based mac systems and contains important fixes. This does not seem like one patch too many, but an essential one for all users who, like me, have mac hardware. I do understand your wish to reduce the number of patches, but throwing out patches required for support of important hardware does not seem the way to go to me. Regards, Erwin
