Re: [TCLUG:2581] Interesting Linux articles



I used to work at Digi. I asked the folks who write driver writers, and it
appears that the SCO drivers will not work with Linux. It would be good to
call and ask them for Linux drivers, though. Enough calls will get them
written.

Nope.

Linux has a different tty subsystem than both.  Gene thought it would
be pretty easy to port his HP/UX driver over to Linux, but since the net/cx
protocol has not been blessed for the public yet by Digi, I wouldn't
hold your breath.
