Ah yes, I remember that story well. :-) If he hasn't been already,
that guy should be caught and shot. Now. And the IT Directory needs
a long meeting with a cluebat.

will be before companies like Nvidia take a look at their Linux vs Solaris

back support for the US-I (in 64-bit mode only) would make a neat

(it's apparently fixed in build 30).
I usually use the NVidia driver (-81xx is out now, BTW), but with build
28 I'm using the X.org nv driver. It works for my limited 2d work,
but is a bit slower than the NVidia driver (but not unacceptably so).
