It's not really Nvidias fault as far as I can see. The problem is that
right now that even the vanilla kernels are getting alot of new stuff
added to them, and that's not even taking into consideration the changes
in the hi-performance/low-latency audio kernels. So I'm sure it makes it
hard on Nvidia to keep up with those changes. Nvidia is probably in
uncharted territory as far as Linux is concerned, after all their used
to Windows and Macs, and then here comes Linux that develops about 10
times faster. I would think that they must be expanding their Linux
development dept., because if you look at the Nvnews Linux Forum they
have an the announcement: " NVIDIA Linux/Unix position available!
<http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=c407923a7f0b809c55d215207cf45177&t=41760>".
So for now I'm sticking with the kernel I have until the dust settles
(if it ever does), because I know the Nvidia drivers work with it.
