For the i386, NetBSD 1.2 brings a number of new device drivers, many
|
|
bug fixes, improvements in Linux emulation (including support for sound)
|
|
and the other emulations (SVR4, IBCS2, FreeBSD), and enhancements to
|
|
a number of existing device drivers such as the "ahc" driver for Adaptec
|
|
AHC-2X4X and AIC-7XXX-based SCSI host adapters and the "bt" driver for Bus
|
|
Logic SCSI host adapters. Support for PCI-PCI bridges allows the use of cards
|
|
such as Cogent and SMC multiple-port Ethernet cards and Adaptec 3940
|
|
multichannel SCSI host adapters with preexisting device drivers.
|
|
|
|
FDDI is now supported; drivers are in the generic (but not install) kernels.
|
|
|
|
NetBSD 1.2 on i386 is, as usual, also fully backward compatible with old
|
|
NetBSD i386 binaries, so you don't need to recompile all your local programs.
