I found the link to nouveau (http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/) the
most interesting bit in the comments, but I only briefly skimmed them
and French is my fourth language :-). I think I got the gist of it
though, the positions were more or less the same as here: some people
would like fully open hardware, others are fine with well-documented
proprietary hardware that allows a free driver to be written. And the
fully open people were informed that RMS didn't agree with them.
I also learned that the French word for driver is "pilote". I think I'm
going to use that in Dutch and English as well. "Did you try updating
the pilot?".

The rest isn't all that great either...It's nice to think of all the
people that looked at an image I edited, but if people are going to
take the professionality of this article as a guide to the quality of
our hardware...
No worries, its the Inqwell. And isn't there supposed to be no such
thing as bad publicity? =)
