After some discussion with a couple of people on the Fedora kernel team on IRC they decided that we should not enable CONFIG_INTEL_TXT until it is useful for something other than a closed source binary blob which Fedora is unable to distribute. We have messaged that Fedora was unable to include the binary blob from Intel and it has been suggested that they create an open module rather than forcing Linux users to trust some part of their system security to an unknown binary blob. Hopefully you can add your weight to that discussion and help intel see the need for an open source blob. -Eric _______________________________________________ Fedora-kernel-list mailing list Fedora-kernel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-kernel-list
