It's hard to say. They made a lot of changes to their local copy of the Linux tree and likely they did something incompatible, so it's not really possible to support a version of Linux with arbitrary modifications to it. OVS is more self-contained and mainstream, so you would probably have better luck asking them what types of modifications they have made. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
