Hello Ken,
testing on VMWare or in public clouds won't help you at all as they are not
emulating new hardware. The 'exotic' hardware we are talking here about is
supposed to be for high-performance desktop/workstation systems and was
released in May i.e. nearly 3 months ago.
Sure, it sucks
You can use the Phoronix forums in relation to the article.Also, the OI wiki
provides a way to report on our own 'test analysis' on compatible OI-related
hardware.
Phoronix is just another independent test and review website. Anyone can report
and test on what 'works for them' to
challenge
