@hacker-news@feeds.twtxt.net @ullarah@devtxt.quisquiliae.com Correct: CUDA remains closed source, so these new open source kernel modules remain useless if you want to use only free software. The good part of it is that it will “serve as a reference to help improve the Nouveau driver.”
Still this is a good move in the right direction. I still don’t understand why they just don’t open source everything anyway, don’t they make money on selling great GPU cards in the first place? 🤔
