And then it was memory holed by the lawyers?

haha. Today's video is LAAAAAAAAAATE.

Long time, many months coming. Little by little, inch by inch, we figured out what we needed to.

What's the secret? No secret really. Just the software. But probably it hasn't been certified by Intel. That's the hold up?

Well, we got it working anyway. Except hot plug.

We were advised not to show you too much details to avoid possible legal type headaches. It might be fine?

But any reasonable hacker can get this working -- just use the Alpine Ridge controller successfully in another system, then bring it over to TR and add some of the special sauce.

Hell you could probably even patch OVMF ;) ;) to make life easier testing random crap in your simulated UEFI with devices added to that virtual machine.

And we can't give you the UEFI you need to do this since it (probably?) contains Stuff We Pulled From Somewhere.

But we wanted to share. Maybe we won't publish this video publicly? But we should publish a video today.

We solved the puzzle, thanks to you guys. Also REEEEEEE.

Whaddaya think?
