Guest Master_T Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) i just dont give a.. faq about this. if something new released - i'll try it, if there is no something new - i don't care. also, i dont need OC and i don't need over 9000 in quadrant. Who cares about OC... kernel sources means we can have fully-functional portings of other ROMs like Cyanogen and MIUI, that's what's important IMHO. Edited January 13, 2011 by Master_T

Guest Varyag Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 BTW, you can't get 9000 marks in quadrant,don't you? :D Just kiding ofcourse. i even don't have quadrant installed. hmmm.. just got idea... can we "hack" apk, so it will get 9000 always? :P

It is great that you don't need it. Yes, I am simple enough and requesting for a OC kernel from source only. Seems that you have some spare time, join us and push for the kernel source release if you like to.
Guest Varyag Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 spaming is nothing. it's a "kindergarten") These are Eclair sources (incomplete and messy,moreover) :P mmm... any news about porting .35 kernel on liquid? :D
Guest Edward.W Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 These are Eclair sources (incomplete and messy,moreover) :D It's interesting of what the hack is the Acer's engineer doing B) Is that too much thing for them to handle at the same time or they just don't have enough man :P

I mean, what profit are they getting by not releasing them?? The only thing I can think of is that there's something in the sources that violates some licence or copyright... that would be improbable indeed but I can't think of any plausible reason why they don't release the sources. EDIT: Acer response just arrived: Thank you for contacting Acer UK. Regarding your enquiry, We regret the inconvenience caused to you. We understand your concern. Our technical and development team are working on a high priority basis to meet the latest market requirements. After developing the new facilities it has to pass multiple tests, which requires more customisation to attain best user friendly results. Once these facilities are ready we will definitely upload them on our website. Thank you for being patience and keeping us in business. Sounds very much like a pre-written "default" response by a customer care guy that doesn't have the slightest idea what a "kernel" is.... sigh... well better than nothing I suppose.

Guest xaueious Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 They can be late, but they seem to be ignoring requests right now. I feel like we need to get traction on this by setting up a dedicated blog, a Facebook page, and daily tweets until they get this to us.

LOL this looks like typical response from the simplest kind of customer support AI software... To generate this kind of response you only need to take a basic computational linguistics course! (may be a stretch to call it AI :), more like regexp + database ;) ) Edited January 14, 2011 by koudelka

Maybe someone needs to send an email outlining their responsibilities under the GPL, and "proof" that they have not released the full sources to build the production kernel and send it to Acer's Legal Department (I would assume they have one, as most corporations of this size do).

Glen The GPL guidelines recommend to notify the company/individual that holds the copyright beeing violated, that would be Google I suppose? Or the AOSP?
