If this is the problem we have a lot other problems. GPL cannot and does not (in fact it would break DFSG clause 9) say anything about "combination"'s of this sort. (make a CD with different programs) I see no problems with maikin GPL programs that moves unfree data from one place to another. What is done with included firmware if I understand correctly. It is moved from harddisk to the hardware and then the hardware is used like any other kind of smart hardware. -- hash-bang-slash-bin-slash-bash
