Sun to restore Intel support for Solaris (News.com)
News.com reports
that Sun will revive Solaris on Intel. "Sun is relying on the
community of Solaris-x86 users to help support the product. Lovell said the
company will release the programming tools it uses to build the "driver"
software that lets Solaris communicate with hardware such as network
cards. Creating and supporting those drivers is a big part of the expense
of supporting Solaris on a wide variety of servers, not just the limited
number of models Sun sells." If sales are good for this product it
could impact future development of Sun Linux.
