You might also grab the linux kernel from one of the mirror sites on this list: http://www.kernel.org/mirrors/countries/html/US.html And read the stuff in the /Documentation directory for info on devices supported by the Linux kernel. For user developed device support outside of the kernel, google is your friend. I have been conned to many times by packaging that says a device supports Linux when in reality it supports an old kernel version with binary bits that you can't fix or re-compile. -- Kelly Black <kelly.black at penguinpackets.com> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
