Hello all.

Hmm. The SDL Mailing list has suddenly become real quite (or my mail is
really stuffed). So, in response to this, I'll just post a little
question:

Has anyone heard of this joint project between Intel, Compaq, SCO (and a
few more companies) called "Unified Unix"? I read a brief article on it
at wired.com (forgot the URL), but I'm still confused. Right now, my
current view on it is that its aim is to create a set of "driver
structures" for all unices to share? I'm hoping this will mean more
compatible hardware in Unix and thus allow things like more video card
support in X, better compatibility with a wider range of sound cards and
virtually nearly every other peripheral.

But then again, maybe I'm completely wrong about what I just said (I
have a nack for doing things like that.) ;> Incase I am right, then it
should be clear that SDL must implement support for it (and hopefully
Linux will too).

*shrug*

Cya,
NoEscape
