I'd certainly back it up. In the communities of users of some open

it seems like most use nVidia and are quite happy. To the extent
that there've been issues, they've been with ATI cards. I don't
doubt that you've seen lots of complaints from nVidia users; but I
suspect it's because of population size.

It scared me away and i just stick with my old g400. I really like the philosophy of not letting any
closed source
drivers into the kernel. In the end i only saw people upset because
their XY nvidia or ATI driver wasn't working.
That's a perfectly valid point. But for every disgruntled nvidia user
there are 100 who are just happy to be able to play UT2004.
