Gimme a break. You have drivers someplace and you got them from Linux and you got the networking stack from Linux, so either call it Linux/Hurd or back off on your constant GNU/Linux crap. It is the ultimate in hypocrisy to ask others for something you aren't willing to do yourself. I, for one, will remind you of this every time you bring up GNU/Linux in this list. It won't go away, I'll make sure of that. It's just pathetic what you are doing and I'll happily shine a spotlight on it until you change your tune or go away. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
