For me, might be good news. Had problems with nouveau, reverted to proprietary. One problem, I clearly remember. A broken machine could stay alive for many days, perhaps weeks, but not with nouveau: failed even to complete boot, due to the temperature rising above threshold. From my problems, I concluded that it was functional, but not fully. This does not invalidate your comment, but I think it is always good when a source code becomes open. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
