Were they rejected? No, I did it all: git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/firmware-2.6.git (well, not _all_ -- there are more drivers to convert. Help wanted!) It wasn't rejected -- it's in the linux-next tree and should be going in to 2.6.27. One we finish converting the drivers, we should have the capacity to rip _all_ the firmware blobs out of the kernel without permanently losing functionality. At that point, we can at least have the _discussion_ about removing those blobs from the kernel source tree and putting them in a separate repository, without it being pie-in-the-sky. Alex now says it isn't good enough, and is actually counter-productive. -- dwmw2 -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
