Hi, I was just looking over the fence, what the NetBSD folks are doing. (I experience some strange realplayer 8 crashes on my home box) An interesting bit I noted was that they based their Linux emulation on the SuSE 6.4 distribution, while we use RedHat. I have no idea which one to prefer, but it raises the question if it would make sense to organize the emulation to host different Linux bases. How dependent is the present one on RedHat? Another source for variation is the XFree 3.3.x vs 4.x issue. A newer Linux base would need XF 4.x. What could be nice way to tell the runtime loader what installed Linux base to use (if there are different?)
