This is out of curiosity Anivar. Being a developer I guess you know clearly what goes inside the gNEWSenSe tree so I need not rely on people you only have hear say knowledge. Do you include all the Device Drivers ( not for MIPS but for others ) from Linux kernel in your gnsnse Distro? What do you do when you find a device driver was written by Linux Developers after signing NDA from a Vendor who does not free documentation and if full of magic numbers? thanks --Siju _______________________________________________ Indian Libre User Group Cochin Mailing List http://www.ilug-cochin.org/mailing-list/ http://mail.ilug-cochin.org/mailman/listinfo/mailinglist_ilug-cochin.org #[email protected]
