Linux-VIA love match announced
VIA HAS HERALDED its strong desire to collaborate with the open sores community with the announcement of its official VIA Linux Website due to open later this month.
The site will initially host drivers, technical documentation, source code, and information regarding the CN700, CX700/M, CN896 and the new VX800 chipsets. Official forums and support for more products will be added later in the year.
The company is proposing to stick to a regular quarterly release schedule in line with kernel changes and release of major Linux distributions. In addition, beta releases will be issued on the site as needed, and a bug report and tracking feature will also be integrated. µ

Open Sores? I love the INQ language but thats a tad stupid.

Anyway, good to see hardware vendors getting cozy :-)

Now if only some game studios would step up...
*Windows* is the Open Sores operating system...
What like the latest release - Fistula?
VIA have been promising proper Linux support for years, but it never came.

In a previous work life I evaluated embedded platforms. Their unichrome drivers were a bag of dog sick. Each version brought its own ridiculous limitations, upgrades would suddenly make something not work, and taiwanese manufacturers would then send us versions we'd never seen from VIA, which didn't work either.

Don't bother. Decent NVIDIA and ATI chipsets are cheap and small enough nowadays, and are better supported.
