Untitled Linux Show 6
The Past/Present of GPUs on Linux
The past/present of GPUs on Linux
On the Untitled Linux Show, the crew talks about news, like Intel looking to buy SiFive, the RISC-V chip manufacturer, and the 2020 FOSS Contributor Survey. They chat about the shared culture of Linux and geek culture in general, giving recommendations for a few books, essays, and experiences that every Linux Guru has or should have. They talked about heads and tails on the command line, and the difference between semicolons and ampersands when running multiple commands. Finally, they cover the history of video cards on Linux, and the current state of running a GPU with closed and Open drivers. It's a great show and a fun set of topics, so check it out!
