Matthias, could you shortly explain or give a link to an explanation why distribution is a problem? Is it just because Novell doesn't want to support (read: offer service for customers with problems) those binary modules or because you think, that the GPL doesn't allow the distribution? The first case I can perfectly understand, but the latter case would be really new to me as AFAIK nowhere in the GPL is written something about packages which are given by the same channels than some GPL code. If it were like this, this would mean in the end, that the GPL and the kernel folks can control what you host on your servers, which can just be not true, can it? > Use intel. Only exists onboard.

But you are not willing to distribute them anymore or did I get you wrong? Ciao Siegbert P.S.: Also went to Matthias only in the first time, sorry. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
