[Nouveau] nVidia has freed some modules, what to expect for Nouveau
Hello, everybody out there! It turns out nVidia has recently released some source concerning GPU kernel module: https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules At first sight, it seems to me some good news. I wonder: will it be useful for Nouveau? Will it lead to some change in Nouveau? Best regards. -- Yoann LE BARS https://le-bars.net/yoann/
