Trident Micro Changes Policy Toward XFree86
Alex writes: "According to Egbert on the Xpert Xfree86 mailing list, Trident Microsystems, who makes video chipsets for low end PC's and notebooks, has changed its policy towards open source developers. Get the details here."
If you want to email Trident Micro Public Relations, please be polite! Flaming will only hurt the chances that Trident will reverse this decision.

I've never seen HeUnique before. Is he new, or have I just never noticed him before?

Told them that I haven't used their crappy chipset since my 386/33 and that I never would use one again for any Linux systems which I happen to assemble for myself or others.
THat'll show 'em...
Two muscular guys with oiled skin. The dark haired one is on his knees behind the blonde who's on all-fours, slowly pushing his thick erect penis in the blonde's puckered asshole.
All this taking place while a sexy, throbbing soundtrack is playing on the background.
Got a hard-on already?

You fucking suck. Everybody already knew that you make the worst products ever, but not even allowing people who have bought and paid for them to use them? That is the lowest down thing ever, and now no one will buy your lousy shit anyway.
Get rid of the fucking NDA's and give us your fucking specs. If you're too lazy to write your own damn drivers, at least let someone with more brains do it for you. Your slimy business practises are outright dishonest and will lead you to the corporate cemetary even faster than you are already going.
This bad decision (undoubtedly made by some stupid manager who thought it would make his half inch penis longer) is one of the worst moves ever. As a concerned GNU/Linux user, I won't take any more of this. The whole world will hear of your deeds, and you will burn in hell forever!!!
Sincerely,
A Concerned Open Source GNU/Linux User
plz ignore yo
Dont no one tell how or should write. Oh lets kiss ass so they release the specs. Flame on, budz, emails, or trident cards. Take your pick.
Trident is a nigger chip. It is for slovenly fat lipped nigs and jigs. It is for sub-human apes like this.
As much as i'd like to, i'd hardly call linux 'security based'. unless you were talking aboot openbsd?
