NVIDIA already ostensibly open-sourced their driver for GeForce RTX 20-series and newer.
Yes, they shoved all the important bits in the firmware, but this still could make for a much more stable Linux module, if NVIDIA actually respects license/code boundaries.
- rany_ 3y agoIt is worth mentioning that their open-sourced driver is not the same codebase as their proprietary driver, it is inferior in performance for desktop/gaming users. So it is not really a complete alternative yet. Either way as you mention, the fact it's only GeForce RTX 20-series and newer is a dealbreaker for people with older cards as well.
