Re: Freebsd 4.0 and Linux
This for -questions, but 3.3-STABLE does so presumably current does as well. -Kip On Wed, 13 Oct 1999, mariusz wrote: > Hi > >What depth of FreeBSD's support for Linux applications under >FreeBSD 4.0?

As for binary compatibility, I can't say -- haven't tried it. If you're compiling from source, forget the version numbers - it all depends on exactly what you need, especially when it comes to glibc. FreeBSD (even 3.x) has had support for a long time for some of the functions that are "new" to recent versions of glibc. mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
Freebsd 4.0 and Linux
Hi What depth of FreeBSD's support for Linux applications under FreeBSD 4.0? I can't seem to find adequate information online. Does the support comply with our current requirements for Linux?: minimum kernel version: 2.0.34 minimum glibc version: 2.0.7-19 Mariusz To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
