It's mostly O2 stuff, but if you look carefully in his screen shots, there are two that are supposedly of this FB console for extreme. One shows text, another a floating boxes animation. Go into his kernel directory, and you can download the IP22 kernel ready to run. I looked carefully through all his patches and links. The extreme patch is not to be found. I don't even see an email for this "milang" fellow. However, interestingly, some of the kernel config files are labled "onion". If we get lucky, the right search terms in the world brain (google) might just yeild fruit. I'll keep poking at it. -S- On Sun, 11 Feb 2007, Kumba wrote: > You know of patches?
