Poor Free - The list is growing exponentially, and Takabuntu just reported
he got his problematic NVIDIA 8500GT going using the latest flavour of the
NVidia binary drivers.

Is there time to include it into to 2.1 release?

Comment (by free@64studio.com):

Hi Quentin,

I think I missed it, please would you point me to this report from
Takabuntu?
2.
I'm afraid to say that the 2.1 is likely to stick again to kernel 2.6.21,
because it seems that the latest NVIDIA drivers (which are the only ones
that compiles cleanly against 2.6.23) need a very recent version of Xorg,
which is available only in sid/lenny, and that would be very painful to
backport.

We have more and more nVidia problems as the newer hardware gets more
affordable...

Cheers,
Quentin

Comment (by qharley@wbs.co.za):

I get the feeling that we might be forced to move to ECHENNY Debian
soon... which is what I am seeing anyway at the moment... There will be
pain, no matter if we stay back here or move forward. At least I am one
of the lucky ones that does not have any hardware issues at the moment.
