It is my understanding that the current 2.5 kernel has support for various
DMA modes on the Intel ICH4 chipset. I don't really want to be running an

I'm trying to determine whether flex++ produces standards-compliant C++. It
seems that it very nearly does, except that /usr/include/FlexLexer.h refers
to std::istream and std::ostream without the std:: prefix. This is as of
2.5.4a-30 (current unstable), however; 2.5.4a-29 was still using
iostream.
