I hope at that point the trading standards people would take an interest. At the moment it is if anything in the domain of the OFT, who did not yet see scope for acting when I spoke to them earlier in the week. Downloading the copy of the kernel sources that SCO are making available for free FTP download under the GPL and which is 2.4 might be a reasonable thing to do. You can then point to the source code that SCO have provided and the licencing conditions they published with it, even if you have chosen to alter the version you are using in some ways. 26 MBytes. ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/updates/OpenLinux/3.1.1/Server/CSSA-2003-020.0/SRPMS/linux-2.4.13-21S.src.rpm -- From the Linux desktops of Dr Adrian Midgley http://www.defoam.net/ -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
