Re: Debian/kFreeBSD vs linux jail?
Hi!

I know some applications are linux specific, but are they really linux specific or gnu specific? I'm going to retry getting a printer driver working with cups that had issues with FreeBSD in the past, but I don't know if it's FreeBSD userland or FreeBSD kernel that caused the quirks. Has anyone tried using Debian's kFreeBSD userland inside a jail? Is it just pointless on a FreeBSD system? If it is a free software CUPS driver, chances are it is a GNU thing and Debian GNU/kFreeBSD might work for you. For all the proprietary stuff (say flash, acrobat, ..) Debian GNU/kFreeBSD usually is worse of than either GNU/Linux or pure FreeBSD systems (because no comercial vendor ever builds for this platform).
