BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: This still is for no fault of the coreboot team. Not when the
libreboot transteam went and broke things that already worked under coreboot
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: AHA, '
libreboot' was dysfunctional tranny coup
swiftgeek:
libreboot thinkpad doesn't have it easy, neither BSDLs nor XOR test chains are described for our montevina targets

trinque: is this the same
libreboot tranny, or yet another one
mircea_popescu: walter the scheme here proposed is that a project (linuxbios) which was useful on account of actually having drivers for extant hardware was killed by hardware maker conspiracy. on its now useless ruins, as it's dead, an idiot with a "sexual identity" political agenda tried to build a grassroot activism thing called
libreboot ; and some unrelated packrats with a penchant for software try to build a cluttered warehouse called
walter: so what is 'coreboot' sans blobs, if not
Libreboot? Any competing projects?
walter: by 'linuxbios' sans blobs you mean

walter__: considering the horrible situation with x86 laptops I wonder if Asus C201 (again from the
Libreboot compatibility list) is "the cure"
walter__: although according to asciilifeform

libreboot scriba: Logged on 2016-09-26: [14:59:14] <asciilifeform> (summary : seems like rms grew a spine for the occasion and it exercising the '
libreboot' trademark, and expelling the idiot with empty pockets)
a111: Logged on 2016-09-25 02:48 phf: "Richard Stallman and GNU refused to let
libreboot go, despite stating its intention to leave culture rant
libreboot.org" (particularly hilarious rant in light of

libreboot is currently expanding
mircea_popescu: what exactly "
libreboot is no longer part of the gnu project" is supposed to mean is anyone's guess. the whole existence of gnu is in the form of licenses. they can't retroactively change these. so they'll what, move to mit/bsd licenses in the future ? nobody gives a shit. are they selling to apple ? wouldn't be the first time fraudulent operator tried this under the guise of "good reasonz, guise!!!1"
a111: Logged on 2016-02-29 16:55 asciilifeform: so at this point i'm satisfied that rms either 1) does not actually use an x60 machine with '
libreboot' ~~or~~ does not program.
mircea_popescu: take your "
libreboot" which is "transsexual"-aware and shove it.

libreboot just sort of runs it at mid-rpm at all times.
punkman: ben_vulpes: iirc x61 doesn't
libreboot BingoBoingo: More accurate:
Libreboot is perfectly happy to include turds so long as they have an RMS approved license
mats:
libreboot doesn't exclude turds as part of its philosophy iirc
punkman: why doesn't
libreboot support any g-series?
punkman:
libreboot might also derp about licenses
decimation: in fact, why not use a stallman '
