They're not as bad as nVidia. What kind of video card are *you* running? ;)
This bothers me. nvidia isn't bad unless your name is Richard Stallman. I have an nvidia card and get excellent results with this under linux. Far better than the OSI compliant drivers you get with Matrox. nvidia is to my knowledge the only company that brings out drivers for linux in parallell with their windows drivers, and with equal or better performance. Plus they have stated that the reason they're not OpenSourcing their work is that they have 3rd party license issues. Open Source/GPL is nice, but active support is good enough and sometimes better, since then people are actually payed to work on things. How many OS projects have died (I read that the DRI team has lost its funding. Will Matrox et al. have 3D support in future?) Keep up the good work, nvidia. It is appreciated. //Anders
