+1, this would be a great idea. It'd be handy to have links to various software and hardware things, i.e.: I want mp3 playback - go to Fluendo (or a link to a walkthrough on build gstreamer/lame backend) I want to get my Yukon NIC up - go to Marvell's site. etc. etc. cheers, steve -- stephen lau // [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 650.786.0845 | http://whacked.net opensolaris // solaris kernel development _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
