NVIDIA Open-Sources Tegra K1 Graphics Support

Posted by Soulskill on from the increment-good-citizen-point-total dept.

An anonymous reader writes "NVIDIA's next-generation Tegra K1 ARM processor now has open-source support for its Kepler-based graphics. NVIDIA decided to submit a large queue of patches to the open-source, reverse-engineered Nouveau project for supporting their ARM Kepler graphics with the open-source driver. The patches are still experimental but this is the first time NVIDIA has contributed open-source code to Nouveau."

    The title should be "NVIDIA publishes Nouveau patches to support Tegra K1"

    Nothing has been "open sourced" as it was never closed sourced to start with. It's all original code written specifically for Nouveau.
