Bugfixes for the old firmware are not provided by Broadcom anymore. Who: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> --------------------------- What: Solaris/SunOS syscall and binary support on Sparc When: 2.6.26 Why: Largely unmaintained and almost entirely unused. File system layering used to divert library and dynamic linker searches to /usr/gnemul is extremely buggy and unfixable. Making it work is largely pointless as without a lot of work only the most trivial of Solaris binaries can work with the emulation code. Who: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Loading
