Hi,

	How can I make SCO binaries run under Linux? To try it, I got
a SCO binary of gzip but it doesn't work. Do I have to install a module
to make these binaries work ?

Thanks
Jacques Tremblay

Yes, you need the ibcs module.  Look at tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/BETA/ibcs2

	How about... SCO drivers with this system? is it possible? The
main goal being running the intel etherexpress pro driver, as linux
doesn't even seem to have an alpha, due to information scarcity.

Don't be silly :-). To get a driver to work you would have to emulate 
*internal* kernel interfaces and structures. To do this with any degree of 
success for anything more than a specific driver for which you have the 
source code you're going to have to sign NDAs and buy a source license...
