If you're right about NVIDIA, it means that I will never be
able to upgrade until I change hardware (as as far as I
understand, the same change was applied to X.org) ? And that
"older hardware" includes hardware that is still produced and
sold by NVIDIA (GF 5900 / NV 35) but is not anymore their
flagship product ?
I am sorry if my message only add noise to this bug, but I am
a little bit stunned by this. Do you know a specific address
where I can complain at NVIDIA or should I call my graphics
adapter vendor and hope it will follow-up ? Thank you anyway
to have taken time to answer me.
