SubjectRe: Y2k compliance
Date

} > Quick question: since which version has Linux been Y2k-compliant?
} Since 1.1.18, ie. mid 1994

Thats for the kernel.
Obviously for a complete system the whole lot needs to be compliant or at
least worked-around.

If your BIOS/RTC is buggy in this respect you may have problems.
If your base utilities are buggy, you lose.
If your specific application is buggy, you lose.
