| On Monday we will be publishing our results 
| from the 2009 Linux Graphics Survey, but when 
| looking over the results there is one set of 
| numbers in particular that jumped out (though 
| there are a few other interesting figures 
| too). Below is a prelude to the Phoronix 
| survey results that will be published on 
| Monday. The below graph shows how the ~14,000 
| respondents during our month-long survey 
| responded to what Linux graphics survey 
| driver they were using.

The kernel column by Jon Masters # 81

,----[ Quote ]
| With it came the usual raft of new features: 
| support for USB 3.0 (big thanks are due to 
| Sarah Sharp and the Intel crowd for their 
| work on that), CUSE (character devices in 
| userspace), support for working with hardware 
| performance counters, an in-kernel memory 
| leak checker called Kmemleak (from the ever 
| awesome Catalin Marinas) and many, many 
| dozens of other features besides.

| For the past month we had been running the 2007 Linux Graphics Survey at
| Phoronix where we polled users to find out what display hardware they use,

| to Linux desktop users on the visual front. We received over 20,000
