Hi Adam, Thanks for all the effort you've put into this.
Just so anyone else with the same model as me knows, I can not get the patch to work with my VPCZ1. After a few files getting succesfully patched I get :patch: **** malformed patch at line 849: Which appears in the sony-latop.c section of the patch. I believe Norbert may already be addressing this issue. Thanks, Andrew On Sat, Jul 31, 2010 at 11:10 AM, Adam Hill <[email protected]> wrote: > > Right, I finally got it to work.
