AMD Backs openSUSE with Huge New Infrastructure

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the money-where-mouth-is dept.

apokryphos writes "AMD has helped sponsor the progress of openSUSE with leading-edge hardware and development expertise. "AMD is helping to ensure that the openSUSE Build Service continues to be an important collaboration and development platform for developers of all distributions," said Terri Hall, AMD vice president of Commercial Systems Marketing. Are these continued announcements of huge support from large OEMs an indication of a new era?"

  1. it's MS Linux isn't it? by wardk · · Score: 0, Troll

    so SUSE takes a big share of the market, it's just ms windows box being swapped for a microsoft linux, or am I missing something with the ms-novell thing?

    seems to me that novell and suse must end up in a slag heap for linux to "win"

    AMD doesn't care who owns linux, I guess they bet MS-Novell will sell lots of linux where everyone else failed

      you think an MS Linux being the "leader" is gonna be "linux winning"?

      that's hilarious.

      linux will be a steaming pile by the time MS is done with it.

      I can spell BSD
