Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2000 13:37:51 +0200 From: Sean Walbran <s.walbran@fz-juelich.de> To: discuss@linmodems.org Subject: [Announcement]: Linmodem-mini-howto draft Announcement: Linmodem-mini-howto document We would like to call your attention to the Linmodem-mini-howto document draft version 0.20, which can be found at html: http://walbran.org/sean/linux/linmodem-howto.html 1-file-html: http://walbran.org/sean/linux/linmodem-howto-all.html sgml: http://walbran.org/sean/linux/linmodem-howto.sgml tarball: http://walbran.org/sean/linux/linmodem-howto.tar.gz You are receiving this announcement either because (a) your name or site is referred to in the document, and we want to make sure that that's okay with you, (b) you are subscribed to the linmodem mailing list, or (c) we just thought you might be interested. Summary: This document describes Linmodem (winmodem hardware) support under Linux. At this point, such support is very limited, almost exclusively in the form of manufacturer-created but unsupported binary kernel modules. This document addresses the special complications dealing with these binary modules rather than with source code, particularly focusing on the compromises of using mis-matched binaries and kernels. We hope that you will find the time to read through the document, and point out any errors, weak points, or blatant falsehoods you might find. Thank you for your attention, Sean Walbran Marvin Stodolsky sean@walbran.org stodolsk@erols.com -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dr. S.
