after reading around a bit [1], I get the impression that while the situation isn't great, it isn't a hopeless disaster, either. Apparently there's Linux drivers but only x64, and not in a Ubuntu-friendly format. Hopefully this will change. I'll play around with it a bit, to see how bad it really is first hand :-) thanks [1] http://mhr3.blogspot.ie/2013/06/opencl-on-ubuntu-1304.html http://mhr3.blogspot.ie/2013/06/opencl-on-ubuntu-1304.html Edit: apparently the drivers that are available for Linux don't support HD or Iris GPUs.
