## 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.
-The current status: the pcnet32 driver can work very well in DDE Linux26 now. I hope someone can try other NIC drivers.
+The current status: the pcnet32 driver can work very well in DDE Linux26 now. I hope someone can try other NIC drivers. Please run DDE with GNUMach in the [master-user_level_drivers](http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/gnumach.git/) branch.
There is a minor problem when we compile a Linux driver. Linux drivers use jiffies to measure time. Unfortunately, Mach doesn't provide it, so whenever we need it, we need to calculate it by ourselves. I decide to provide a macro to calculate it for the sake of performance and the cost is that the source code of Linux drivers has to include ddekit/timer.h.
