this might in turn be of much help to Gnu/Linux users. As Google itself is into it, now, the OEM's will be pressurised to release decent free drivers for their hardware. Most of the OEM's only make default drivers for Microsoft probably because, Microsoft insist so. That is gonna change anyway.

You use Ubuntu right? I am not a geek. But my understanding goes here: RPM is RedHat Package Manager and YUM (Yellowdog Updater Modified) is a command line package-management utility for RPM based systems. Ubuntu is a Debian based OS and it uses DEB. Yum's equivalent in Deb based systems is apt.
