[comp.os.minix] Want 1.3 -> 1.5 upgrade and graphics driver question

inst182@tuvie (Inst.f.Techn.Informatik) (07/11/90)

Hi!

I have Minix 1.3 installed on my 386-box and would like to upgrade to 1.5.10
over the summer holidays. 

Because I have a 386, I would like to get my hands on Bruce Evans 386 version
even more. 

I cannot ftp, and email is too expensive, so could some kind soul send me the
patches ON DISKETTES ? Both 5.25" and 3.5" disks are ok. 

By the way, when I have 1.5, I'll start to write a VGA-graphics driver and a simple
window system. Is anybody working on a similar project ? Do you have any special
wishes concerning message format, graphics primitives etc. ? 
(Please no wishes like "I want a X11R4 server for MINIX!", you would never see
it finished :-( )

Many thanks in advance,
Peter.
