Not only should they fix it, they should open source the code, so AMD can contribute.

Intel often makes noises about open source, so they should put their money where there mouth is.




Compiler discussion to one side for a minute...

Intel does more than just make noises about open source. Their wifi and graphics chip set support has been excellent over the years. Prior to the recent changes at ATI they were pretty much the only company doing that.


Agreed and it's good that they do that since I use their graphics and Wifi drivers on my Ubuntu Laptop.

My point was if they are truly committed to open source they would do this too, they are after all a hardware company and should compete by making the best hardware.
