If software such as Splashtop and HyperSpace are based on the linux kernel, to what extent does that help Free Software and coreboot? Specifically, if a given set of hardware can support a proprietary instant-on system, to what extent will their kernel diffs enable coreboot and the linux kernel to run with at least the same level of functionality on that set of hardware?
