I'm stumped on this one. I've been playing around for a while with 2.6.6 on AMD (x86), trying to get it to recognise my DEC 21041 (tulip) PCI network card. FWIW, 2.4.25 and earlier all work fine with it. I've googled (web and news), and generally had a look around but cannot see anyone else having

Commercial-grade application software

Hi folks,   I have now a working Linux system with an acceptable GUI and a broadband link for communication, all with freely available software. But without application software, they don't mean much. I'm looking for good application software in the areas of hardware and software design.   In hardw
