Are there really no pieces of the Linux kernel source written for purposes other than being part of the kernel, but afterwards included in the kernel? Pieces which are licensed under the GPL, that is, not firmware blobs. The authors of such pieces are able to initiate action against any distributors of the Linux kernel. It's the only way we can get a definite answer. (It's obviously not a very productive use of everyone's time and money, but that is often the case with lawsuits.) /Benny -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
