No, the Ethernet driver is Linux-only and uses the access library. Both are crap BTW, the library is much worse. Actually I think the whole library needs to be rewritten from (almost) scratch (resulting in 5% or less code), and the Ethernet driver wouldn't be a problem then. The BSD-licensed version would of course help. > Intel should be able to fund you to rewrite it - convincing them > they are going to sell more chips this way seems to be not too > hard, no? Any Intel contacts interested? I could possibly earn some money as well :-) > As far as the license for the microcode (If i understood correctly) is > concerned It's not. The microcode is closed, there is not a word of info, and it should be loaded using the firmware loader. Not a problem, though. -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
