ah nice, didn't know that it's already that connected. >The idea is 1) to have fun. 2) learn the LINUX kernel.

We talked a lot about the future of OS/2 with several OS/2 developers and most of them simply are not interested in working 100% on Linux. We know that some things in OS/2 are really crap nowadays but like this we always have something to do :-) If I talk to people I usualy say "It does not make sense at all what we do but it's fun" and I think for many of us this is like this. That's why we stay on OS/2 and enhance it wherever we can (and find the time to do so). >So, this is for guy which wanna learn the kernel, not for guys who wanna >run native Linux X application or use Wine. > >The reason nothing have happend is very little space on netlabs, and >that 2.6 is a better thing to learn than 2.4.

That's now comming within a few weeks I hope... :-) As long as you do that I am not afraid it won't work :-) cu Adrian -- Adrian Gschwend @ netlabs.org ktk [a t] netlabs.org ------- Free Software for OS/2 and eCS http://www.netlabs.org ----------- To unsubscribe yourself from this list, send the following message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] unsubscribe arch_i386os2 end
