From: Marc Boucher <marc+linmodems@mbsi.ca> To: discuss@linmodems.org Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Improved Conexant HCF/HSF Linux drivers and website Date: Sun, 7 Apr 2002 03:02:41 -0400 Hi, I am happy to announce that new versions of the Linux drivers for Conexant HCF (controllerless) and HSF (soft) modem chipsets featuring important bug fixes and new distribution-specific RPM packages are available from our completely redesigned web site at: http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/ The new distribution-specific RPM packages contain - in addition to os-specific source - pre-linked kernel modules for common kernel versions to facilitate the installation process; no recompilation nor kernel source tree should be required anymore for most current versions of the mainstream distributions. We plan to extend the support to more kernel versions, however on-the-fly recompilation will of course remain supported. Along with the new web site we are inaugurating four mailing lists (hcflinux-announce, hsflinux-announce, hcflinux, hsflinux) for announcements and open discussion of HCF/HSF driver issues under Linux. Instructions on how to subscribe, post to, or consult the archives of those lists and many additional resources are on the web site above. Cheers! Marc
