No... Trying to force them would be to say they can't do them at all- which is NOT what was stated. Quit putting words into Alan Cox's mouth there.
All they said was this nifty interface that would help them do even better than they already are is going to stay GPL and they can't use it unless they GPL things. It's no different than if I had a patented compression algo for textures and insisted upon licensing it out before using it. Keep your biases to yourself, please.
Heh... There's other uses for a GPU and they're not graphics.
Ever wondered why AMD opened up most of their programming info? Stop and contemplate why they did that and offer off-and-on assistance in the FOSS driver stack at their expense. It's not because of them being altruistic. It's not because they see more than a nascent market for games.
It's because of the same thing you pointed out. That 10G card is important to supercompute clusters. So's the GPU. I honestly wish people would step back and quit thinking with the blinders you just espoused just now.
If you're going to provide an OpenCL driver, you'd best work with Linux since pretty much all the top 10 supercomputers USE that as the core OS. We won't get into most of the CGI shops needing the same sort of thing for workstation drivers (which is WHERE the OpenGL drivers came from...not out of the kindness of their hearts...).
There's a reason AMD did what they did. What I just pointed out is that.
Uh, they own most of it. By "choose not to" they've chosen to not provide the IP they own as public info- which is fine. (Without your snide remarks, that is. You're using code written against that ideology to post your comments...perhaps if you have issues with it, don't use Firefox, don't use/., etc. Basically speaking, keep your hypocrisy to yourself, please...)
However, Intel and AMD seem to not have problems with this. Only NVidia, Qualcomm (which could easily ask AMD for permission for the stuff they don't own...), and companies like Imagination Technologies are choosing this path.
Actually, they COULD be doing it (They're doing some of at least documentation for Tegra...), but it's a business decision to not be, so they can't. Be specific.
Wherein does it say that there is a separation of church and state? Point to it in the Constitution...
(Hint: I'll be waiting to the heat death of the Universe and will still be waiting...)
What they set aside was that they could not have a State established religion (e.g. CoE...) and could not generally interfere with the worship of any established religions (Obamacare's insistence on the Catholics paying for things like Abortions and Birth Control is Unconstituional...). Which neither is "separation of church and state" as people keep trotting out all the time.
Considering the Jury misconduct that transpired with their lawsuit on the Samsung deal, you might want to dial that fanboism back a bit... But then, this is/. and you posted as an anon coward...unsurprising.
Heh... I've worked with part of those smart people... There's some legitimate gripes I've got with it all, but you'd be dead on about all of it all the same.
Drop the meta-webos directory, in toto, into the OE-Core or Yocto main directory, source oe-init-build-env in the main directory, add the meta-webos directory to your config/layers.conf file in build (which you'll be moved to when you source oe-init-build-env...) and then type "bitbake webos-image".
If you're green, a quick trip over to the Yocto project over at the Linux Foundation would be suggested and it doesn't take 10 weeks as implied. It might take a couple of hours if you need to refer to the quickstart over there at the Yocto project- but it should take minutes if you've got the required skillsets to be actually DOING this sort of thing.
Satellites and other space gear are referred to as "birds" in the industry. Same goes for anything "flown" whether it's a passenger plane or an UAV. Shows you just how little you know.
Official requirements, yes. Thing is, if you've got 512Mb-1Gb of RAM, commensurate flash, and a GPU that's worth having, an A8 based device will do reasonably well running ICS. There's a handful of cheapie e-book readers, tablets, etc. showing up with ICS and they're usable.
This is more due to a desire by the Telcos and the phone vendors to avoid any more perceived hits on their gross margins than they feel they should have to. It takes time to validate firmware (including device drivers)- and it's just "better" for those gross margins to convince (cough...hoodwink...cough...) the consumers to go upgrade their plan and their phones.
The problem is that it's got a stupid design defect that makes it very defeatable.
They're advertising it as being more secure than regular locks, just for starters. If you don't see the context he's specifying, you're being willfully obtuse.
Most real conservatives know it's not Social Security that's the problem, but rather things like Medicaid, and similar programs, that're the source of the problem.
It doesn't take a financial genius or a rocket scientist to go look at the budget dashboard figures from the GAO, etc. and see that we're spending less on Social Security/Medicare and Defense (Which includes all the spending done on the recent wars we've been involved in...remind yourself of that...) than on other idiot social programs (that's where the bulk of the actual spending has been for a long while.)- and know where to contremplate cutting things. You have issues with it, though, because everyone doesn't want their freebies cut off- and the Liberals have been using them for buying votes for YEARS now.
Want to fix things? It sure as hell doesn't start with cutting Defense spending or Social Security. It begins with culling things like those bailouts and things like Solyndra. It begins with curtailing what gets spent on Medicaid (Those here illegally get better medical care than the REST of us, including those on Medicare... Meds, glasses, etc. All paid for off of each and everyone's backs...)- and cutting off those that are not really legally entitled to it.
Want to fix the healthcare "problem"?
Get Medicare to QUIT arbitrarily paying out only 30% max of the billed and Medicaid to QUIT paying out 80%. Get the Insurance companies to QUIT paying out only 30% over Medicare's payouts. Change the Insurance story to be more like the HSA/High-deductible story where you're saving up money for healthcare and they only insure against catastrophic incidents.
While that won't fix things, the first item addresses one of the major causes of the "problem". The second forces a re-assessment of things. Might raise your insurance rates, might not. Obamacare will. The third's based on the premise that the "insurance" scheme we're doing here in the country's more of a scam inflicted on the patients and the doctors. You don't typically get "insurance" on piddly things for your car, right? Why should you do the same thing with health or other insurance? If you're able to save up money against regular visits, preferably untaxed or deducted from tax profile, you're going to be inclined to do it. Right now, because of "pre-existing" conditions, I was forced to do that with my new employer. Upshot is that it's cheaper with the same ultimate result for the next year because if I had to get anything under most of the cases, it was going to be excluded from the picture, uncovered, for the next 12 months. So...if I'm "eating" that, I'd rather it be untaxed.
Reality is...you can typically get health insurance in most States at a higher rate through a "risk pool" the State insists upon. I know about it- checked into it because for a long time I was doing contract software engineering and I'm a Type II Diabetic... It's typically 2-3 times more expensive than the regular insurance. Want to have it cheaper? Fine... Problem is, they're going to raise everyone else's rates up and not proportionate to my risks. They have to make a profit you know. So...instead of spending 200-300 per month for insurance, you'll spend $500-700. Enjoy your "universal" healthcare.
In the case of Private Insurance, you can legally challenge them because they're not supposed to be making medical decisions off of financial ones by law.
With Socialized Medicine, you can't at-all challenge the decisions of that "Death Board"- they're sanctioned by law to make medical decisions based off of financial ones.

Heh... If that were the case, AMD would've stood to lose a lot by what they did.

Don't you mean more along the lines of the math they use to calculate royalties owed to performers, etc.?
Prove it.
Not all of them are that way. As an observation any DoD gear tends to not have ROC parts in the device- it's kind of a requirement even now.

Show me the NVidia drivers that were developed mainly by the community with help from NVidia themselves.
(Hint: I'm not holding my breath...can't hold it anywhere near forever...)
However, I *can* show you AMD drivers that meet that criteria...
You keep using that word...I don't think it means what you think it means...
