This is the advantage of the development model behind Linux "drivers." People with serious commitment to code quality review them. They typically should work more reliably.
I usually don't complain about anything Windows, but certain OEMs (Dell, HP) clearly care only for hardware. I've been suffering through a comedy of awful drivers, culminating in using my phone to print.
I wish WHQL did more thorough testing.
