Come on Michael, don't blame the guy for just knowing you're a sensationalizing bastard. We all, Phoronix readers, know it and we're just ok with that. No need to dramatize that much! ;)

On a side...

Missing from the article is the "small detail" that VA-API is, of now, the only library to implement an API for video encoding too. So all the big lists in the article are all about video decoding...

Let me try to summarize the problem here:

1. Udev is broken since forever. Nobody seems to care. Nobody is willing to maintain or contribute to udev;
2. Udev is merged to systemd;
3. Udev...

I didn't disable anything. I'm just running stock Ubuntu 12.10 here. I didn't really tried looking into it yet. Now I'm testing Catalyst 12.11 beta but it's still in a very sad state. Unfortunately I...

Thank you for the answer Pingu. I had seen that page before and, if you are right and it's not working yet, then there's something to be corrected on that page because it's clearly saying that dynpm...

I got a Trinity laptop and installed Ubuntu 12.10 and with the default kernel (3.5) and FOSS drivers it's looking great. 3D works WAAAY better than Catalyst, very stable, BUUUT, it kills my battery...

You have plenty of graphics libraries implementing programming interfaces to use your graphics hardware. The main graphics API is called OpenGL and I'm sure it's available on your distro.

SDL is...

1) DRM;
2) Yes;
3) Whaa?
4) Lots of people don't.

No use for this shit on my Ubuntu box. It goes way easier with just a repository and an apt:// url.

The same system can be implemented on Mac and Windows with ease.

I really don't know why the...

Can not disagree more!
Why would I ever install a shitty binary software on my system just to buy and manage game licenses when we have the whole world wide web and a good web browser that can do...

If this pace of development holds I can see the Gallium3D driver beating the hell out of the classic driver really soon.
I hope Intel starts laying their plans for the G3D transition already so they...

I think todays was the release of the first stable driver of the 270 series: 270.41.06
Adding support for xserver 1.10 and the following newer GPUs:

GeForce GT 520
GeForce GT 525M
GeForce GT...

The article is wrong in the supported hardware part.

The 173 Driver series support from Geforce 5 FX and Quadro FX up to the Geforce GTX 280

The older 96 Driver series is for the Geforce 4 MX...

Great!
This was a logic step since this patent doesn't cover the software rasterizer, there's some useful and perfectly legal uses for this code already.

And if you don't live in North America,...

I think it's floating-point encoded textures, which may cover some kind of codec. It's probably all bullshit anyway, but there's a risk involved in using it without written permission and there goes...

..... ahhaha

now I see. But it doesn't really take an AI implementation to do that. A simple conditional statement will do.

It's just geek's buzztalking. It only means next version of Ubuntu will have updated software.

Because it's a 17W TDP i7, which indicates Atom architecture inside. The article is currently comparing an 18W TDP Fusion chip with an 8W TDP (old) Atom part with way less RAM, which is actually...

Some tests from the developer (Li Zefan) follow:
