can't remember at the moment if it's a firmware block or whatever it was, but it is not included in the kernel tree because of licensing reasons. Red Hat includes it directly from Adaptec's site because their views of free software are a bit different lately I guess. Oddly this is the first non-free driver to come out of Adaptec in years, I don't know what came over THEM either. -- Your Butterfly Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
