- sscarduzio 5y agoIsn't their own best commercial interest to get their drivers accepted into the mainline Linux kernel? Why they would just release a random distribution??
- rgetz 5y agoYes - we attempt to push all drivers upstream, but there are many people who want to just try something out, and don't want to compile kernel and userspace from source. The Kuiper distribution is about convenience for those people who want to be users, not developers. [Disclaimer - I work at ADI]
