Hello,
As I said before, I'm working on my old VM routs.
They handle both VM and memory protection and I can change MiNT's MMU routs to
handle MPUs higher the the 68030 (I've got the 040 & 060 manuals and I have the
humble opinion that as a professionnal programmer I can say I have the knowledge
 ;-) ).
I just miss the time (I spent only a few hours on it the last week) and a Falcon
isn't the fastest machine for GCC compiling, but I work the faster I can, and 
have only bug fixes to do.
I'm currently thinking about supporting text sharing with VM (this will allow
text sharing for all VM compliants programs but makes the things harder).
So please wait, it comes slowly, but it comes...

Cheers, Eddy.
