This (and the replies on this thread from Linux supporters) shows how far away Linux is to be an acceptable alternative to Windows on the desktop. Instead of welcoming such a big hardware manufacturer with open arms and try to reach a compromise (and understanding that a company is not going to devote infinite resources to something that's not really as profitable as Windows, because you know, companies are created to make money, not lose it - they aren't not-for-profit orgs) the kernel maintainers choose to focus on purity and style crap. Well, enjoy your pure code and your 2% desktop marketshare. The next time you recommend Linux to someone, when he finds out his graphics card doesn't work well you can put the blame on the hardware maker as always.
