Disappointing but not life changing it was poorly supported and I don't know anyone running the open driver over the propriety one. However it would be nice to know that someone was working on the driver that actually gave a damn about Linux.
- _delirium 17y agoI think they do care about Linux for the proprietary driver, since Linux workstations are a pretty decent share of the market for their high-margin Quadro cards.
- JshWright 17y agoFor me, the issue isn't that they're dropping their open source driver (as other commenters have mentioned, it was nothing more than a token "get something on the screen" driver in the first place). However, it would have been nice if the announcement had pointed people towards (or at least mentioned) the reasonably solid Nouveau driver, rather than just telling people to use vesa until they can download the propriatary driver.
