They don't write the drivers in 'C' or some other common lanquage. They have some proprietary system.
And you really believe that? Isn't that a bit naive?
Sure with the specs one might be able to write some drivers in 'C' or whatever. But do you really think that an outsider is likely to produce better drivers than NVidia does?
At least for me it's not about better drivers, it's about better maintainability. The audience for the peer review would be *much* larger and thus the possibility of making the driver even better. Another point is that you're stuck with waiting for nvidia to release drivers that adapt to newer kernels or other platforms. With open sources, you could do the adaption yourself! Philipp
