Notes
[edit]- ^ a b 'On Device' means firmware is stored in device at all times
- ^ a b c d 'N/A' means firmware is stored in device at all times, 'yes' means firmware is available for totally free redistribution, 'no' means you have to get into non-free-software contract with the manufacturer to get access to the firmware
- ^ a b c in terms of no binary-only requirements that are posed by the driver, i.e. you can modify all code that is run on your CPU
