Can we please kill all these threads now.....

if ATI can suck it up and release a driver, surely Nvidia could have
in the same period of time. We all know how this works with Nvidia,
they take 2 or 3 weeks after breakage is introduced in distro to
provide the drivers. Not a test release, not a test update, but 2 or 3
weeks after its introduced in a mainline release.  Like sands through
the hour glass, so are the days of our Nvidia drivers
incompatiblities.  As the most important Nvidia hardware user on the
planet, if not the universe itself, I say release the goddamn 7.1
updates already so Nvidia can start their goddamn clock towards
releasing a working driver.

door, Nvidia sure as hell could to... we need to stop treating either
vendor as some sort of demigod and looking to them for permission to
breathe.  Everyone take a breathe and get over it."spaleta
