Re: [META] proposal to set up digestifier for linux-kernel

2001-01-29 Thread Romain Kang

I received a note from Michael T. Babcock noting that there already
is a digest operated by yahoogroups.com (formerly egroups.com):

> I read the Linux kernel list as a digest from egroups.com.
> Do a quick search for 'linux kernel' and you'll find it.

If you don't care for the advertising that comes with it, I've been
informed there's a site that hopes to make a Mailman server publically
available to carry linux-kernel as a digest also.  They have to be
prepared for 3000 digest users, since that's what vger.rutgers.edu
used to carry.  Watch the list for a public announcement.

eepro100 - Linux vs. FreeBSD

2001-01-29 Thread Romain Kang

Dumb question:

I've been following the freebsd-hackers list for a while, and in
that domain, the Intel NICs are the preferred interfaces because
they perform well and are very stable.

One approach to the endless eepro100 headaches would be to port
the FreeBSD if_fxp driver to Linux.  After all, drivers have been
ported between these OSs before; e.g., the aic7xxx SCSI adapter.
However, I see no evidence that this has been attempted.  Can
someone tell me what I'm obviously missing?

[META] proposal to set up digestifier for linux-kernel

2001-01-28 Thread Romain Kang

After a hiatus from linux-kernel, I find that the lack of a digest on
the new server is a nuisance.  I'm thinking of setting up a Majordomo
digestifier, with the caveat that non-plaintext messages may have some
displaced bits. 

Would there be an interest in this?
