Hallo,

In my opinion that's a kind of trojan horse, but this issue has been
talked about here many times, so one might want to seach the archives
for more on my opinion.
but i have to confess that 3D gfx drivers (with decent
performance) are
such a complex thing that
you can not demand them to be opensource.
I have an Intel laptop with a G900 chipset, whose open source drivers
provide 3D performance that is decent enough for me to do a
performance on stage with it that includes 3D-graphics and sound
coming from the same laptop, see the LAC2006 site for a video.
Ciao
