Your forgetting the embedded device market that the Tegra K1 and newer are used in. Is Nvidia going to orphan this whole market segment they've built? I know they replaced a ton of WinXP boxes in labs across the world, and it seems as though they have captured most of the automakers on that same platform, from Toyota to BMW all running Xorg in their cars.
Will Toyota go for running legacy, unmaintained Xorg in their cars? How about BMW? I don't see Nvidia ready to dump this market they've spent a decade building, so short of them being complete idiots, they will probably walk back on this.
That being said, these were the people that tried to pass off a painted block of wood as a GPU on multiple occasions: https://semiaccurate.com/2011/03/11/nvidias-ceo-has-another-woodscrew-moment/ https://semiaccurate.com/2011/03/11/nvidias-ceo-has-another-...
- aseipp 9y agoThey're talking about not supporting XWayland, not Wayland proper. Given this -- if Toyota doesn't want to run "legacy, unmaintained" X11 in their cars, then.... they don't have to, they can just move to Wayland, which will work, and NVidia supports Wayland just fine -- and they don't have to worry about X11 at all anymore? So, everything would be fine? I'm not sure what point you're making here...
