Implemented IPSEC.
Began studying up on mobile IP and MPLS so that can get implemented too.
Expect next diary update 1 or so years from now. Sorry, I totally don't understand the whole blog phenomenon and what drives people to update these things constantly. It's like the internet equivalent of a bullhorn "HERE IS WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AND THE BORING SHIT I DID TODAY, HEAR ME ROAR!"
Oops, did I just fall into the trap myself? :-)
The Broadcom Tigon3 boards arrived, but looking at their driver made me want to scratch my eyeballs out. I think I'll write the 2.4.x driver from scratch, thank you. At least, I can print out their driver and use that when we run out of toilet paper here at the apartment.
Jeff Garzik will help me on this thing and I let him loose on the vger cvs tree today.
Someone told my wife about the multi-head experiment I had planned for her. Get back in the dog-house dude!
I think I crashed the playboy cyber club server yesterday.
Winter is long gone, this snowboard powder bum is depressed.
I just int10 booted the x86 bios on a r128 PCI graphics card on my Sparc SunBlade-100. Life is... ummm... good? Will be cleaning up these xf86-4.1.x mods and trying out tdfx and other cards tomorrow. Maybe I'll even get r128 DRI working on this box, which would be nice. Gareth Hughes promised he would help.
What does this mean? Well basically I can now multi-head Creator3D/Elite3D UPA boards, mach64 ATI cards with Sun firmware, and off the shelf PCI graphics cards with x86 bios on them.
I think I'll setup some scary Xinerama 6 head configuration using the endless supply of monitors I have here, just to scare the wife when she gets home :-)
In other news, linux-kernel thinks I'm a communist, I've become a gonzo journalism addict, and I've joined the playboy cyber club.
I've driven my pathfinder roughly 1,000 miles since my most recent powder day in the Sierras. I'm so pathetic, I know...
Got multi-depth (8, 24), many visuals (truecolor/directcolor/pseudocolor/staticgrey/etc), and hw accelerated double-buffering working with Creator/Creator3D. Just have to nail a few bugs then it's off to DRI/DRM direct 3d rendering.
Paul Oakenfold is the ruler.
The PPPOE/PPPOX patches are in 2.3.x, should show up
in Linus's next pre-patch.
Starting looking into overlay support for FFB in xf86-4.0, unfortunately the xf40 overlay layer lacks the concept of window-id's for the 8-bit overlay (essentially, WIDs give you N 8-bit colormaps to use, where N is the number of window IDs supported by the ramdac) so we'll just use one WID for xf86-4.0 until this is cleared up. I wonder if I can trick the xf86 overlay layer and do WID management internally to the ffb driver.

New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
