Erm, actually Nvidia won't provide source and the open source equivalent nouveau is part of the kernel but Nvidia do provide an installer just like windows so if you want it updated automatically unlike windows (even the new geforce experience just checks and downloads the installer) then your not being fair to the situation at all and are spoilt by how easily Linux is kept securely upto date automatically. I know because I occasionally power up a big retail game every couple of months on Windows and have to wait until I no longer want to play before everything is updated. Thankfully more are coming to steam if I can get it to work without polkit, actually the problems just it's dreaded dependencies that certainly aren't required, an unnecessary result of that very easy to update benefit that few are willing to realise or fix even with rop attacks. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
