It seems to do what genmac does - ie use a win driver but hooks into the kernel. Just wonder if we could make it an OS/2 ndis driver that wrapped the win stuff. I spoke with Brendan Oakley, one of the maintainers of UniAud, who felt that the UniAud source code would make a good base to use Linux drivers in OS/2. SNAP could also be a good driver base. That said, and per Dave's initial comment, a wrapper might (still) be the best way to go, as long as we're not constantly playing catch-up as we've seen with the GenMAC approach. Somehow, the ndiswrapper project (http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Main_Page ) hasn't seemed (to me, at least) to be as harried by the newer Windows drivers and support for them. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------- Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC www.2rosenthals.com Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com Secure, stable, operating system www.ecomstation.com -------------------------------------------------------------
