But if your video is Nvidia, you are out of luck until they open their drivers.
- xvilka 5y agoEveryone is out of luck until NVIDIA open their drivers. I am sure their proprietary ones are complete garbage, for compatibility and application-specific tweaks. I wish more open source systems and progress tell them the same thing that Linus did.
- ksec 5y agoFrom https://www.openbsd.org/goals.html https://www.openbsd.org/goals.html >Be as politics-free as possible; solutions should be decided on the basis of technical merit. Someone has the wisdom to put this in nearly 20 years ago.
- bluGill 5y agoOpenBSD split from NetBSD years ago for political reasons. So it isn't a surprise that 20 years ago politics and the issues thereof were high on everyone's mind.
- ksec 5y ago>OpenBSD split from NetBSD years ago for political reasons. I was naive in thinking it was always about the focus on priorities, as in Security vs NetBSD's portability. So I decided to read up on it [1]. Since Wiki seems to be purposely quiet / unclear on the incident. Turns out Open Source Politics isn't that much different 25 years later.

- zokula 5y agoThat would assume that OpenBSD is secure the first place.
- macintux 5y agoNothing is 100% secure.
- ToddWBurgess 5y agoTheo de Raadt wanted to make security the number one priority and the NetBSD team did not. So Theo de Raadt forked NetBSD in order to create OpenBSD which would become security first. It was a political decision. My source on that is a NetBSD kernel dev.
