DDE/DDEKit is a library, and it should be compiled with the code of Linux or FreeBSD drivers. DDE Linux26 is still under development and it can now support network and block devices (but doesn't support SCSI). ##The current status -Currently a few NIC cards work now. I tested pcnet32, e100, e1000, ne2k-pci and rtl8139 in VMWare and Qemu. But the DDE e100 driver cannot work for some e100 cards as currently DDE doesn't support firmware. Someone also reported sis900 cannot work, unfortunately, I cannot test it myself. I appreciate if someone can try some other NIC drivers and give me some feedbback. Please run DDE with GNUMach in the [master-user_level_drivers](http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/gnumach.git/) branch. +Currently a few NIC cards work now.

Please run DDE with GNUMach in the [master-user_level_drivers](https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/gnumach.git/) branch. ## My work I separate DDE Linux26 to 2 parts: libddekit and libdde_linux26. I also provide a library called libmachdev on the top of the Linux code to provide the Mach device interface, so it is easy for the user to compile a Linux driver and run it in the Hurd. The latest code can be found in the dde branch of the incubator repository. |
