Question about GPL & closed source drivers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Can Linux DVB project drivers derived from non-GPL closed source SDKs be distributed in binary form only legally?  It seems most if not all of Linux-DVB is standard GPL.  And if that requires driver source to be GPL'd as well, it seems like it closes the Linux community off a bit from companies wanting to provide driver support to Linux while still keeping trade secrets protected.
