[RFC] Remove AGP support from Radeon/Nouveau/TTM
...TLB, if memory serves. I think this is going to be a hard sell at this stage, I'm guessing users will crawl out of the woodwork, I'm sure with 2 hours after I'm able to access the office, I can boot the 865 AGP box with an rv350 in it on a modern distro. Maybe we can find some way to compartmentalise AGP further? Dave.

Significantly reduced caching on memory accesses definitely sounds like something that would be noticeable and objectionable. I would speculate that this would also vary a lot across chipsets, depending on the capabilities of the PCI MMU vs the AGP MMU. In the end, i...

locking down R

When I asked what he meant by insecure he replied that Linux does not have a true Auditing capability - as opposed to HP-UX & Solaris which they do support. Can anyone explain to me what he was talking about? Thanks, Marty

Reflections on Trusting Trust
or "How do I know my copy of FreeBSD is the same as yours?" I have recently been meditating on the issue of validating X.509 root certificates. An obvious extension to that is validating FreeBSD itself. Under "The Cutting Edge", the handbook lists 3 methods of synchronising your personal copy of FreeBSD with the Project's copy: Anonymous CVS, CTM and CVSup. There are
