Hello there!

Over the past several months, we have received hundreds of e-mails from
Linux users who have asked us to support DVD under Linux. We're happy to
announce that very soon, Linux users will be able to play DVD's using
the new REALmagic NetStream 2000 card.

We have created this newsgroup so that Linux enthusiasts can share ideas
and learn with us as we begin the process of testing and shipping our
Linux DVD products. While we have ten years of Linux experience behind
us, Linux is something very new for us. 

This newsgroup will be the source of official support from Sigma Designs
for Linux. We hope to work with many of you over the coming months. 

We look forward to your comments.
