Re: Foxconn deliberately sabotaging their BIOS to destroy Linux
Dude! The board is meant for Vista systems. This information is specifically mentioned. If Linux does not have a certificate program, it is the Linux organization's fault. Pointing to bad DSDT tables is what I mentioned - the board is not meant/optimized/made for Linux. It is made for Vista. Just like Apple hardware is specifically Apple, this was made only for Vista. Foxconn has said that the board DOES NOT support linux, so it does not. As simple as that. The model is not made for Linux. Whether it points to wrong tables or does not point to any tables. The fact is that the board is not for Linux, the manufacturers do not provide support for Linux on that particular board.
There is no law that states that Foxconn should make mobos that are supported by Linux. It is the company's wish whether the mobo supports Linux or no, this particular model does not.
