Hello, I have followed the recent discussion about vidoe cards on the list. I have also been looking for a new video card and was thinking about a Nvidea card. However, I have read about the license problems with "tainting" (non-GPL) kernel modules for Nvidea acceleration. It seems like that kernel hackers try to block out non-GPL code like this driver (sounds reasonable to me ...). In particular, Alan Cox has picked out the Nvidea kernel modules as a good example how a module "taints" the kernel and explained that such tainted kernels will be not debugged in the future.
So, what do you know about graphic cards regarding driver's licenses? Bye, Steffen
