   The SCO vs. IBM lawsuit that was once seen as an existential threat to   
   Linux became a bad legal joke. Now the suit may finally be put to rest.   
   Well, some of it anyway.

   Today, many Linux users would be shocked to know that there was once a   
   lawsuit aimed squarely at Linux's heart: Its intellectual property. Some   
   people at the time even thought SCO's lawsuit against IBM might end   
   Linux. They were wrong. But, for years the case dragged its way through   
   the courts. Now, one part of that case may really and truly be disappearing.
