Hey Jan, The bmc_intf.h file is necessary for the Sun /dev/bmc driver. I don't include it in FreeIPMI b/c the licensing of OpenSolaris conflicts w/ FreeIPMI. Anyone who wants to compile FreeIPMI to work w/ it just has to make sure bmc_intf.h is in their include path so it can be found and the sunbmc driver can get compiled.
You can read about it in the README.sunbmc. Al On Thu, 2009-07-30 at 23:31 +0200, jf222792 wrote: > Hi Al, > please could I have a question regarding one file?
