I think that the rest of the message is correct.

Thought that timing was likely but did find the previously listed possibility

as 'interesting'.

We are really lucky getting Alyssa Rosenzweig to talk. She's doing
important and tricky work providing open drivers for pervasive hardware.
Reverse engineering hardware as complex as a GPU is astonishingly
difficult.

The Linux graphics stack is enormous and I don't understand it at all
well. I really look forward to Alyssa's talk: it should fill in one tile
of the mosaic. I hope to ask Alyssa if she knows a Royal Road to
understanding the stack.

Having long term issues in trying to run a multi-gpu system and lately adding

a 4k hdmi monitor monitor into a now 5 monitor display sub-system I also

have more than a question or two that I would love some answers for.

Likely won't be asking any questions as I'm finding that most of the Linux

community doesn't use multi-gpu setups unless its for computing horse

power or electronic currency mining which needs are quite different than

for a very heavy screen real estate system (better not to frustrate other

attendees!).

Thanks for confirming the scheduling.
