Geohot doesn't know what he's talking about and I'm kinda ashamed to see this lazy thinking leak onto HN. There was an article a couple weeks back on AMD open sourcing drivers in the Linux kernel tree that you should look into.
- Kelteseth 3y agoCare to explain a bit more? His rant was about the firmware having crashes not the Linux driver.
- refulgentis 3y agoFirmware crashes => days long "open source it and I'll fix it. no? why does AMD hate its customers?" I got an appointment and have exactly one minute till I have to leave, apologies for brevity: they can't open source the full driver because then they'd have to release HDMI spec stuff that the consortium says they can't. (I don't support any of that, my only intent is to communicate George isn't really locked in here when he starts casting aspersions or claiming AMD doesn't care)
