Nvidia is a smart company, otherwise they wouldn't be in business today. I'm sure they'll switch to the GPL only once it will be in their advantage to do so and no sooner. When would it be an advantage for them ? The moment there is a GPL graphics library (at the right system level, of course) that's so good Nvidia won't be able to resist using that library could be such a moment. A new project for Hell.Surfers ? ;) regards, Rik -- Bravely reimplemented by the knights who say "NIH". http://www.surriel.com/ http://guru.conectiva.com/ Current spamtrap: october@surriel.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ --1041491099257-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
