To: freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Mon, 23 Nov 1998 16:35:07 +0100 (MET) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL15 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Would be a good idea to implement the "LapLink" PPP as a ECP mode DMA driven PPP ..? I think advantages would be definitly both speed and less cpu load. Have a ECP specification at: http://wave.campus.luth.se/~pb/comp/standards/ecpmode.htm When I use PPP via Laplink as it now. The computer is not particular useful when transfer is in progress.. ;( /Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
