for open source
It's not like the software is worth anything without buying the hardware in the first place. Encourage us to keep buying your products.
!
Opening up these drivers will allow the OSS community to provide fixes and enhancements, benefitting Nvidia's Linux userbase - and Nvidia indirectly.
Im from uruguay. I like your geforce but im need a free software driver. Please help to make free and open drivers. Siendo un usuario de gnu/linux necesito el driver libre ya que tengo muchos de sus productos, mayoritariamente tarjetas grafica GeForce y no quiziera dejar de compralas pero por la falta de drivers libre y viendo que AMD si los tiene me hace pensar seriamente si seguir o no comprando sus productos. Gracias y adelante.
Yes please.
NVIDIA are selling hardware, not software. So what is the problem of opening drivers ? It's free support !
come on nVidia
Buying your product means that I should have the right to use it under any platform that I desire. By denying me that right you deny me as a customer.
I hope for amd64 support on FreeBSD in the future.
For freedom
It's be good! +1
I'd love to have a better experience w/ my nVidia card in linux.
It is very important to allow free programmers to make open and free distribution. If someone opens his products, we have more evidences to trust him.
my notebook sports an nvidia-gfx-chip, and i would definitely like it to be free and open!
Got an NVIDIA graphics cord on my debian, could use some new drivers
I don't care if the solution is open source or not; I just want 1920x1080 resolution and 3d acceleration to work! And I'm sick of fighting xorg.conf! It shouldn't be such a pain! Makes me want to scream!!!
For an alternative to proprietary software. Linux also exists
Signing the petition. OSD ftw!
it's will be great if Nvidia opened source of driver i hope that :)
All you need is open mind. All we need is open driver.
Very iportant for all
Please open up the driver
for gnu/linux !!!
I support this petition and I'm a real nVidia user. Com on: take another step toward open-software!
The idea of NVIDIA opening up they're mind to an open source philosophy is definitely one that would surely benefit both sides of the fence.
Great products deserve a great driver
Nvidia should be embarrassed that their expensive graphics cards are outdone by Intel's integrated chips when it comes to getting easy 3D acceleration on Linux.
Please join the open-source movement. To not join this would be a huge mistake as it is the future!
be better - be opensource
You know it makes sense.
I'm a Linux user and I want my NVIDIA graphic card works and performs like in Windows. If the only way to do this is openning drivers to community, then you must.
Please ! I don't have an Nvidia card but I certainly buy one if there is on open driver !
please add support for your awesome graphics hardware in Linux!
I agree wholeheartedly with this initiative. Opening the source code would enable Linux developers around the world to work with and improve said code as new implementations of the kernel come out.
please open the Driver for Linux, NVIDIA!
Linux is the future, Nvidia, be part of it!
I have nvidia cards in my Dell desktops, running SUSE & Debian. I am not happy with the linux support, please help us make NVIDIA better for Linux users & developers!!!
I've replaced all ATI cards with Nvidia ones because of the better Linux support, now I'm considering switching back to ATI. Full-featured open drivers just work better. Nvidia, listen to your customers!
This would be fantastic!
Seriously, NVIDIA, you really should
Please nvidia. I was a supporter for years but you're going to loose me now that ATI is going the OSS way.
