Description: improved Power Macintosh support for the Linux kernel
The Linux kernel for the PowerPC architecture is maintained in a
number of source trees separate from the official one. This kernel
patch contains the modifications by Benjamin Herrenschmidt relative
to the official tree from kernel.org.
.
While this kernel patch should work on most PowerPC machines, it is
most useful for Power Macintosh computers, because it adds or
improves support for numerous hardware features found on these
machines, among them sleep and video mirroring for PowerBooks and
experimental access to IEEE1394 (Firewire) devices.
