After a long time with no news, we have a great update from the Linux DC Team:[br][br] LinuxDC Status as of September 7th, 2004:[br]Christian Berger forgot to sleep and wrote a driver for the VMU LCD display. See his dreamcast page for more goodies and pictures. [br]Some Gentoo enthusiasts, including Karl Trygve Kalleberg, is again sniffing at making a Gentoo port to the Dreamcast. [br]Karl Trygve Kalleberg noticed that our old domain (linuxdc.org) was not only expired but also snatched by an evil domain shark, so he had to register linuxdc.net instead. [br]Christian Berger wrote a SEGA Dreamcast SLIP/Linux HOWTO and a tutorial on using the DC as a VPN firewall and router. [br]Christian Berger wrote a driver for the SEGA LAN Adapter (HIT-0300), available as a patch against 2.4.19 [br]M.R. Brown left the project, being too busy with other console work. He is already missed. [br]Adrian McMenamin has got his VMU filesystem driver to the point where it can list files off of the VMU. He's also working on using apache to serve pages from the VMU, once he implements read support. [br][br]More information at the Linux DC Homepage (http://linuxdc.sourceforge.net/) [br][br]Thanks to Mekanaizer for the news.

Some of these news bits are compilations of news from the past year 1/2. Probably was an overall recap.

Actually, their website simply puts the current date on the page. There was no update.
