Lenovo GPL Violation

---

Hi everyone,

I'm requesting your help.

Lenovo still has not released the proper source code for the Ideapad A1 and K1 tablets. The K1 has been on the market 210 days, and the A1 166 days.

So far, Lenovo has released two .zip's that were supposed to be the kernel source.

The A1 kernel source is incomplete and cannot be compiled in its current form.

The K1 kernel source does not work with the hardware in the K1. A simple look at logcat proves that the source code released is not the source code from the kernel used on the K1.

I am asking that everyone please contact Lenovo via social networking so that our requests cannot be swept under the carpet. We have tried contacting Lenovo corporate directly for months and have gotten nowhere.

Twitter: @lenovo and @lenovoforums
Google+: +lenovo
Facebook: facebook.com/lenovo

Lenovo needs to be held accountable. Together we can shine a light on Lenovo's decision to repeatedly violate the GPL.

Thank you

I will be tweeting to them each day with the following message:

"@lenovo @lenovoforums [#] days since the release of Ideapad K1 and still no working source code. Will today b the day u stop violating GPL?"

I see on their twitter feed that they have several links in the format of
"How to customize launch zone on our IdeaPad Tablet A1 - one of several new Lenovo "How To" videos "

How about asking them for a "How To" video on how to extract the kernel from Lenovo's incompetent clutches?!

I'm kind of surprised google doesn't get more involved with companies like lenovo who don't exactly "play" by google's rules...
