RedHat Releasing Binary-Only X- servers

Posted by CmdrTaco on Tuesday June 16, 1998 @10:18AM from the interesting-ideas dept.

Mark McCoy was the first to notice a press release over at Red Hat discussing new binary only servers. Basically, binary servers will be made available for chip sets that require an NDA or for chipsets that won't release specs. This seems like a kludge to a bigger problem, but it all is an excellent start to get high end hardware supported quicker.

Real computer scientists don't comment their code. The identifiers are so long they can't afford the disk space.
