As one of the authors of this book, I can say decisively that there is absolutely no plans at this point in time to update the book to a fourth edition. I don't know why they keep putting this updated edition on the web site, it's not fair to readers to promise them something that is not being worked on at all. So don't count on this at all, sorry. greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
