You'd be much more useful if you put some work in to helping get nouveau in
to Debian. The many people who've volunteered to help on it have totally
failed to move on it in any visible way. As for being in no position to do
so, if you want to get started, the XSF is ready to offer any sort of
assistance that we can to make it happen, so you're in as much a position
as anyone else with Nvidia hardware to make a Free 3D driver for Nvidia
cards enter Debian.
