`NVIDIA is said have lost an order to supply 10 million GPUs due to its poor support for Linux. The news follows Linus Torvalds recently blasting NVIDIA for its commercial decision to back mobile GPUs that support Linux-based operating systems like Android, but offer very limited support for the open source platform on PCs. The lost GPU order was for the Chinese government and is estimated to have cost the company between 0 million and 0 million in lost sales.
According to Phoronix, the Chinese government was looking to complement their Longsoon processors and custom Linux OS with 10 million of NVIDIA’s GPU chips. However, the Longsoon processors are based on the MIPS architecture, which NVIDIA’s Linux GPU drivers do not currently support. As NVIDIA was reportedly unwilling to share their source code with the Chinese government, so it could develop its own custom drivers, the deal was scrapped.
Instead, the deal went to AMD which although has its own issues with Linux support, was said to be more willing to get meet the needs of the Chinese government. The size of the order will help AMD’s bottom line and is considerable enough that, combined with Torvalds recent stinging criticisms, it may cause NVIDIA to rethink its current stance on Linux driver support for PCs.`

Nije to nista za Nvidiju, njoj ni GPU a mani tamo neki mobilni cpu nisu glavni biznis... Ona pravi spejs satlove za NASU, satelite mun bagije, kosmonautska odela etc... Kap u moru za Nvidiju...

Onda se tu ne radi o propustenom, vec prepustenom poslu... Ipak, svi ti silni poslovi s` NASOM, itd. i tsl... Steta je sto ce `neko` manje uspesan to da preuzme, mozda upropasti... ... ...

Zezajte se vi, to sto ce sada svemirska odela ,meant to wear` da pojeftine, malo koga od nas koji posedujemo polovni space shuttle ce da ovajdi, vec smo morali da ih nabavimo uz prsluke i space prvu pomoc... ali, nestasica AMD cipova koje ce kinezi da usisaju... to ce nas dotuci. Cene ce da skoce, a mogli bi i da pozelenimo od muke? :P p.s. najbolje od svega, bice ako ispeglaju drajvere sa bar dve trecine agilnosti kao kod windowsa - i jedni i drugi, jer se ni crveni ne mogu pohvaliti iako se ne kude.
Nazvao Nvidia najgorom kompanijom sa kojom su saradjivali.
Linus Torvalds, the creator of the Linux kernel, has called out NVIDIA for their poor graphics drivers / support in a public presentation. In the talk he called NVIDIA `the single worst company we have ever dealt with` and ended his green comments with `NVIDIA: FUCK YOU!`
stvarno mi nije jasno zasto nisu pristali na deal sa linuxom, ko zna kakav razlog je u pitanju.. a ovo za gubitak, jbg, nije to nista za njih ali nije ni za bacanje..

@imarkovic U pitanju je pitanju kineska vlada... ko zna sta se tu stvarno izdesavalo. U svakom slucaju nece da propadnu zbog tog jednog posla, prodace GPU nekom drugom.
