AMD Provides Coreboot Support For Fusion

erek · Mar 4, 2011, 03:54 PM

Fusion is really a big product for AMD, and they are providing a lot of support for it

AMD has been quite friendly towards the Coreboot project (what used to be LinuxBIOS) with releasing support for new chipsets and other engineering assistance. This support has not dried up at all but has only expanded with AMD's recent release of Coreboot code to support the Embedded G-Series Fusion processor.

Patches from AMD began back in February and they have blogged about the work here and here.

This is the problem with using other sites news feeds to create news items here. If one site takes a couple of days to post it up, and the news poster doesn't check to see if that site is posting original content or a PR/other site content, it'll be reposted here. It is better to go the source and post from the original content provider - they are the ones creating the content, who should get the traffic. You can also then see if it's posted already.
