Well it worked for about 3 logons. It's borked again.
Too bad nobody is maintaining the Linux DECNET packages anymore.
Yeah the module doesn't build on newer kernels, iirc. I tried. ;)
Actually, it does, but procfs and sysfs or whatever have changed too much for it to be
configured.
Which is one of my main gripes with Linux. The whole kernel development is just a mess.
They constantly design really bad solutions and implement them. Then they realize they
suck, and they change the kernel interfaces to fix things. But that leaves lots of broken
code around in different places.
It's horrifically fractured, too. So many different distributions try to do things
their own way and there's so much conflicting "standardisation" linux
DEFINITELY inherited that from UNIX. ;)
The world would have been a better place without Linux
But then people wouldn't have absurdity to collectively laugh at. ;)
