Also I asked on the mailinglist for anyone having problems with that and got no answer, execpt Joseph, the problem you have been seeing might have been that one: http://www.mail-archive.com/mactel-linux-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00129.html I would therefore hope it can be applied and thus appear in .20. I am attaching the version that is now in mactel-svn (which also includes geyser4 support).
