About Fatmsmod:

Homebrew developer Dark_AleX has released an optional patch that allows users to load the original 3.71 FATMS driver on 5.00 M33 series custom firmware. In certain cases, applying this patch may greatly improve overall read and write performance with slow Memory Stick brands, such as Lexar.

The Wine development release 1.1.7 is now available.

 

What's new in this release:

 

- Improved device management for DOS drives.

- Many Richedit fixes.

- Various installer fixes, particularly for IE 7.

- First steps of Direct3D 10 implementation.

- Various bug fixes.
