Adding PPA takes no effort, setting up something like Arch or compiling Mesa does and I have no time to deal with it. Some of Linux users (I assume mostly those on *buntu distros) are not developers, sysadmins or kernel hackers, we got other jobs and things to do, but we like open source solutions and other benefits of Linux world. I suppose I should just change my GPU to Nvidia and stop giving a fuck, but I prefer open source solutions and AMD is the only choice when it comes to high performance foss drivers. I'm not bitching or whining here, just clarifying few facts. I can reports bugs, provide logs, test some PPAs, but please don't patronize me with your linux hacker attitude, I'm not one of You, I'm just a user with different job description who happens to like open source for various reason (messing with code is not one of them).</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
