Good day Uros, Splendid to meet you, I guess I am the tried. :)
I have organized a whole range of documentation on the hardware here: http://lists.auroraux.org/pipermail/discuss/2009-July/000002.html On the AuroraUX mailing list. (you may like to join up there, you too Martin.. We can have long quite threads to our self. Whatever suits you two best.) I can setup a branch with commit access for all three of us as a playground also and we can do resync upstream with the osol project once we start getting something usable as well. In particular, You may wish to note well: http://www.x.org/docs/AMD/ I, myself, have been reading over http://developer.amd.com/gpu_assets/R700-Family_Instruction_Set_Architecture.pdf starting from yesterday. I picked this GPU as its 'stream computing capable', that is, it can act like a GP-GPU and I am interested in LLVM and scientific applications directly and 3D support indirectly. I think we should perhaps come to a agreement on a board (of the same series) we can all afford. Also, If Sun could at the very least comment on what they are *not* working on so we don't dub workload that would be *most* helpful. Side note to Martin, Thanks for putting us all in touch ! Thanks Uros and Martin, Look forward to work with you lads, Best Regards, Edward O'Callaghan. -- Edward O'Callaghan http://www.auroraux.org/ eocallaghan at auroraux dot org 2009/7/10 Uros Nedic <urosn at live.com>: > Ecellent!.
