Hi *,

now more and more (IMHO off-topic) posts about what hardware to
use are starting to appear on linux-kernel and linux-smp, I asked
if there would be interest in a new list for the purpose of
discussing Linux and hardware.

Since quite a bit of interest has been shown, I created the list
as soon as I came back from ALS — even before I have recovered
from jetlag and resulting lack of sleep 🙂

The list is: linux-hardware@nl.linux.org

To subscribe, you can send an email to:
majordomo@nl.linux.org
with the following text in the body of the message:
subscribe linux-hardware

regards,

Rik

The Internet is not a network of computers. It is a network
of people. That is its real strength.
