Who has the best support when it comes to gfx?
- ANTSANTS 12y agoOpen source graphics? Intel (they actually have an open source driver team), then AMD (they at least provide decent hardware documentation), then pretty much everyone else ships binary blobs and doesn't document anything.
- wolfgke 12y agoBig parts of the VideoCore IV (Raspberry Pi) are documented - though not completely (especially the video acceleration unit is not yet publicly documented, officially for the reason that you have to pay license fees for some video codecs): http://www.raspberrypi.org/a-birthday-present-from-broadcom/ http://www.raspberrypi.org/a-birthday-present-from-broadcom/ From the embedded GPUs VideoCore IV is as far as I know thus the most open (but rather the one-eyed among the blind).
