AFAIK, in the above, the bit about experimental open-source drivers for mainline Linux is the latest news update.
Note that this last bit proprietary blob is only the low-level GPU driver. Linux device-drivers of the other controllers of the Tegra X1 SoC already appear to be available in source form at https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tegra/linux.git/ https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tegra/linux.git...
(search for 'Tegra X1' or 'T210' or 'Tegra 210').
Also https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/linux-tegra https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/linux-tegra contains source-code(with supporting documentation) for the non-kernel parts like for boot-loader(u-boot), OpenCV, OpenGL, X11, Gstreamer and even CUDA on Tegra X1.
- Quintus23M 11y agoI think, Nvidia is well organised and you'll get a ton of developer informations for the Tegra DevKits on their website and forums. The community is pretty active and helpful as well. They provide a lot of drivers for CUDA and the DevKit boards, namely the Jetson TK1 and Jetson TX1. And some of the users also reported that the Shield TV has a lot in common with the TX1 boards.
- Gracana 11y agoThat's cool. And very promising. I wonder why they decided to do it this way for the tegra project, and if that approach will spread.
