Updated patches

Open neagix opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

I have ported the patches found in the v3.12.11 branch to latest v3.x and v4.x upstream versions, by rebasing them, to make it easier to carry them forward.

Mixed results so far, I will update the status in the next few days (README needs an update).

It seems most of the communication is happening over on forums, so I'll close this for now. At some point when I have more time I'll do what I can to update the documentation here and hopefully do some much needed cleaning up here. It took a few days, but I found my old Wii console again, so it'll be great to give this a try again after so many years of not looking at it.

@DeltaResero ok, I kinda hoped it would stay open for visibility for others looking into running Wii on Linux.

By the way, I am packaging a Debian Jessie disk image with some tooling, will release it in the next few days.

My hope - as stated elsewhere - is to bring forward the MIKEp5/p7 patches; I am still busy with the bisection for the SDHC issue but regardless I would like to leave everything documented on my repo so that someone else can eventually pick up from there (feel free, if you like to collaborate there).

OK, I'll reopen it then. It's just I won't have time to really look into this much till next week at the very least. I also made a note in the ReadMe on the Master branch for now.
