Linux-2.6.33-libre releasedLinux-2.6.33-libre releasedPosted Mar 3, 2010 10:53 UTC (Wed) by paulj (subscriber, #341)In reply to: Linux-2.6.33-libre released by foom Parent article: Linux-2.6.33-libre released are less functional than the hardware allows. Never mind that - those blobs are often quite substantial bits of software running on quite capable hardware (particularly these days). Often these blobs have access to a DMA capable bus and hence have complete, unfettered access over your computer, while also interacting with remote entities, e.g. over a network.
