The Linux community has a strange attitude about proprietary drivers. Otherwise I wouldn't have to put up with the restricted driver manager and its antics on my laptop that runs Ubuntu (no Solaris until hard disk APM can be managed). Or read by proxy about Linus' (and his buddies) endless bickering about it. Also, they're still spreading FUD regarding these supposed layer violations. I wouldn't hold my hopes for now. -mg _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
