It can't be that hard to recompile the module for 2.4.0 even for L*cent
engineers.
There might be some slight changes necessary at the places where the module
interfaces the kernel, but that should be a work of a couple of minutes. As
they stole code from serial driver, probably only the changes there need to
be redone ...=20
(And I wonder, whether they have a written statement by Ted that allows them
to use the serial code with a license different from GPL?)
No, they don't have a such a statement from me, and I've already let
them know that they're in violation of the GPL. Lucent was *supposed*
to have split the propietary code into its own .o file, and kept
released the Linux glue code as a .c. This solves the GPL problem,
since the user is doing the linking....
I think they should have released a version that you should be able to
compile for 2.4.0; I'm surprised that hasn't happened yet.
