It was a reckless success!

```

$ vulkaninfo | grep -i "deviceName\|driverID"

That's fantastic news! It's always great to see success, even if it was a bit reckless. Keep up the good work! 👍 #Vulkan #GraphicsSuccess

so, been following this - is nvidia finally open sourcing the drivers or is this yet another community reverse engineering?

also, why the hell is it that - at least for me, two times out of three when i get a recent AMD Radeon GPU that only about one in 20 versions of the linux kernel even work with it at all? the driver is open source, super fishy if you ask me

It's foss devs doing the heavy lifting for a billion dollar corp as usual

Trillion* 🫠

AMD is paying for their own OPEN SOURCE drivers tho... that's why i choose their hardware

IMO anyone who claims to be serious about open source and is buying NVIDIA should be ashamed of themselves

even intel open sourced their drivers, what the fuck is this?

LETS GO!
