Nvidia: bans platform translation layers for CUDA

Meanwhile AMD: is forbidden from releasing an open source HDMI 2.1 driver supporting 4K@120hz because of HDMI Forums requirements.

Oops. Someone hacked the server and now the code is leaked online. How terrible.

DisplayPort gang?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Sadly also not an open standard, in reality but they are friendlier to FOSS.

At least it is royality free compared to HDMI which has a large annual fee + per unit fee for manufacturers

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

Oh. It's absolutely superior on the royalties side. Just incredibly frustrating that what should be an open standard that anyone can tinker with is not.

Accidental DisplayPort guy checking in. I didn't even know it was a thing until I bought my graphics card. It seems like I dummied my way into some good tech.

Does DP support CEC or ARC nowadays?

[–] knolord 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

sadly not, but GPUs (at least those I used) do not support that over HDMI as well, which is kinda frustrating :/

It was hilarious seeing Intel bent over the proverbial barrel for a while after AMD put out Ryzen, be nice if they could do the same to nvidia.
