Is the reason why not on the Wiki? Would be cool to get it there if not.

It sounds dumb because it is dumb, it implies a big failure in our auto
detection code. I think the drive autodetect code I wrote was never
enabled was it, as we now use HAL anyway, but it seems we really need to
fix this bug ...

Hi,

I am just wanting to keep the patch as a diff somewhere like the ddraw
patch maintained by Stephan Dosinger.

Thanks,
Vijay

All the safedisc related code developed in the last year or so, I can
send you a full diff against winehq if you want.

Safedisc has now been working on wine for almost a year, but it'll
still take some time before we get the code into winehq, so I've
decided to build an RPM of wine with safedisc 1 support so users can
play around with it, you can download it from
http://www003.portalis.it/115/wine-safedisc-0.9.16-mdk.i586.rpm
Safedisc 2 and above are not supported. This is based on wine 0.9.16,
however it isn't an official winehq release, and is provided on an as
is basis. To run a safedisc protected game, you must run winecfg and
set the drive type of your cdrom drive to "cdrom" in the drives tab.
Yes, this sounds dumb, but it has to be done. Then run the game
normally, and as long as you have an original CD (Ok, copies can work
too but that's Macrovision's fault) in the drive, the game will start.
