It's a big day for open source fans now that NVIDIA, the last member of the "big three" chip makers with AMD and Intel, has signed on with the Linux foundation.
The company has previously kept the system at arms length, with users
relying on reverse-engineering to get things working nicely with Linus' baby. It's joining Fluenco, Lineo
and Mocana, three companies who also became signatories to the
foundation at the same time. Whilst there's no commitment to provide
drivers for its chipsets, at least there's a glimmer of hope that the
company will contribute -- especially given the growing popularity of
its mobile platforms.
