Folderview uses nothing advanced whatsoever, just plain old XRender 2D
acceleration which is supported by pretty much every driver in existence
(including but not limited to nvidia) and which works reliably in pretty
much every driver in existence except nvidia, and also has a working
software fallback with acceptable performance (used e.g. by the vesa
driver). And folderview doesn't even use XRender directly, only through Qt.
This is at least the second time I'm telling you this. Can't you read? Do
you have Alzheimer's? Or are you just trolling?

How is it folderview's (or Qt's) fault if NVidia can't even implement simple
2D drawing primitives in a way which doesn't lock up your system?
