Long know problem but nobody ever made a fix. You wont notice it when you
run linux only, do you?

Good that you looked into this, but the patch should go to the linux-m68k
mailinglist. But be sure not to send it as:
application/mac-binhex40
I can not read that without installing additional software, some people on
the list are very irritated even if its MIME encoded...
Please send it as text file if possible.
