gqview-hist-pef-20061106.diff
This patch makes gqview understand pentax .pef files and histograms in full screen mode (toogle with key I, mode K, Log L). This version of the patch also updates a number of autoconf files.
Changes: The histogram calculation is now compatible to everyone else in this world, and the RGB stuff is more beautiful now.
Note: Later gqview patches are at naturbildforum.de.

clockspeed-time-status.diff
This patch makes clockspeed reset the in-kernel time status flag and the error count on linux systems. It allows clockspeed to work even if the kernel thinks the time status is bad (clockspeed used to fail silently in that case).
2004-08-26, seems to work.
djbdns-1.05-slogging.diff
This adds statistics logging to tinydns and all other servers using server.c.
2001-05-04, seems to work.
patches/daemontools-0.70-fromenv.diff

It changes the uid and gid of the process to $UID and $GID.
2001-04-23, seems to work.
djbdns-1.05-dnsfilter-replace.diff
This patch adds an option to the dnsfilter program (-r). It's use makes dnsfilter simply replace the IP address by the host name if possible. If the IP address cannot be determined for whatever reason then it will be left alone. -r stands for replace.
2001-02-15, seems to work.
djbdns-1.04-multiip.diff
or djbdns-1.05-multiip.diff:
A patch to allow djbdns servers to bind to multiple IP addresses. This doesn't affect dnscache, but see www.djbdns.org for a patch.
2001-02-15, seems to work.
Usage: The patch reads multiple IP addresses from the IP environment variable. Addresses have to be separated with a comma.
klogd_lose.patch:
The linux klogd is written in a really careful way to make sure that kernel messages are lost if syslogd is restarted. This patch fixes that.
(i'm somewhat disappointed ... the problem _still_ persists in 2001).
Online since 2000-09-23, first sent to maintainer in 1996 or 1997.
dnscache-0.61.okclient.patch
a little patch for dnscache to allow it to assume that clients are allowed to query (which is useful if you allow or deny access to your dns server by some other method, like packet filtering).
1999-12-29. works fine
dnscache-0.61.forward.patch
forces dnscache to go through the configured root servers for every lookup. Use this together with an appropriately modified rootservers.ip file.
1999-12-29. hack, barely tested, seems to work, is obsolete.
publicfile-0.52-filetype-diff :
Allows publicfile to guess the MIME content type of a file. Description: If the file extension is ".xY", then the content of the environment variable "CT_xY" be used to determine the file type. If this is not found then "text/plain" will be used.
1999-12-06. Seems to work.
svscan-sticky.patch:
makes svscan correctly handle changes of the sticky bit.
