Hardly. NVIDIA says they "made a decision to support Linux on our GPUs by leveraging NVIDIA common code, rather than the Linux common infrastructure." HN responder says that's bullshit since they finally support RandR. I point out RandR is not 'Linux common infrastructure' but a Xorg technology and supporting that is very literally "supporting Linux ... by leveraging NVIDIA common code" because the NVIDIA common code is targeting Xorg technologies and not Linux specific ones.
Then you move the point to something completely different.
NVIDIA is clearly not interested in providing any Linux only support. Don't expect them to support anything under Linux that isn't also common to other platforms they support.
You're just making things up, stop it. DRI2 and KMS are no more "linux kernel" things than "X" things; all you have to do is check the domain hosting the specs. These are well established, well-supported APIs that have been very well received in the Linux world. And yet NVIDIA wants nothing to do with either, for silly internal reasons with poor justification.
