See **PATCHES** below, When a bug is fixed or if the bug report is not understood, you will get a reply, **so make sure your message is properly reply-able**. ## PATCHES ``` To create a patch, first make sure you have a full tree of both the original and the modified trees (herin called "gatos-orig" and "gatos-new" respectively). ``` Make sure each tree is clean by using: - **-\>** *make distclean* in **EACH** directory. Then change to the directory immediately above these two directories and use the following command: - **-\>** *diff -ur gatos-orig gatos-new \> gatos-new-patch* Look at *gatos-new-patch* (with a text editor or viewer) and make sure nothing is changed that you didn't intend to be. You can submit this patch to me either included in an e-mail, or as a MIME attachment, or you can compress it and send it as a MIME attachment, as follows: Compress it with: - **-\>** *gzip -9 gatos-new-patch* Then send *gatos-new-patch.gz* to me as a MIME attachment. If there is a problem with the patch, or I have a question or the patch/description is not understood, you will get a reply, **so make sure** **your message is properly reply-able**. ## LICENSE ``` Files not covered by the main GATOS license (GNU Public License): ``` - delay.S, delay.h and linkage.h are from the Linux 2.0.36 kernel sources (slightly modified) and are Copyright (C) 1993 by Linus Torvalds. - scanpci.c is from XFree86 3.3.3 and is Copyright (C) 1995 by Robin Cutshaw. - pci.c is modified from scanpci.c and is Copyright (C) 1995+1999 by Robin Cutshaw and Øyvind Aabling. ## AUTHORS Primary Authors: ``` Øyvind Aabling Daniel Caujolle-Bert Vladimir Dergachev Insomnia (Stea Greene) Christian Lupien Octavian PURDILA ``` Other Contributors: ``` Bob Bell Bruce Forsberg Chris Hardy Victor Bogado da Silva Lins Ken Dresser Jan ONDREJ techt hook Rodrigo Ventura ``` Based on: - **-aiwtv-0.22** by Øyvind Aabling. - **-aiwtv-0.20uX** by Øyvind Aabling, Christian Lupien, Vladimir Dergachev and Bruce Forsberg. - **-atitv-0.21#X** by Øyvind Aabling, Insomnia (Stea Greene) and Bruce Forsberg. - **-Limited documentation and some support** from ATI Technologies Inc.
