The real magic is that the chip has to emulate another old chip to manage the feat.

    I think this kind of work is a good step towards Open Hardware.

        Yes, and there are people who already worked on terminal screens using RISC-V. But any compatibility advancement is already an advancement for backtracking how those systems work. Therefore, an advancement in Open Hardware. If we can use those systems more efficiently, it’s all the better.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
