That's great news. Hopefully Nvidia follow suit. |

Let's hope they're talking about current cards, and not the junk that they're not worried about Intellectual Property in the driver source. I mean who want a VL-bus video card anyway? 
Seriously, any video card that has Vendor-supplied Open Source drivers will win my business. -- even ATI. Please nVidia, get there first, Don't make me buy an ATI card. |

Really? I've heard rumours that ATI's svideo out produces a higher quality picture. |

Even if it is just the "old" architectures that get opensourced, it's still a step in the right direction.... any change for the better is better! |
