--- Comment #127 from Ryein Goddard <ryein.godd...@gmail.com> ---
Nvidia may not care specifically about KDE/Plasma to the extent you 
want, but saying it doesn't care is clearly wrong.  They do care about 
Linux.  In fact Nvidia knows its cards need to work well on Linux for ML 
and various other tasks.  I have over 100 steam games that work well on 
Linux and Nvidia has made fixes needed at times.


When I launch a game Plasma freezes for a moment and then all advanced 
graphics appear frozen.  My wallpaper even reverts back to some previous 
datetime's image.  Not saying this is for sure the KDE Communities' 
fault.  I am just saying we should clean up our own house before casting 
shade on another's.


I understand people getting pissed by things not working, but how you 
get things done is by providing paths for people to get involved and 
help.  If they disagree you don't just put your head in the sand, or 
give them the finger.  What you should do is talk about it and if Nvidia 
truly does something messed up let the community know, but be careful 
because the Linux zealots will be overly obtuse.


I am all for GNU/Linux, but I think we should all be pragmatic while 
sticking to our guns.
