Nividia is a *VENDOR* that chooses not to provide information so 
drivers can be properly maintained, historically. ATI (AMD now) is a vendor
who provides information so drivers can be maintained, even optimized, into
perpetuity.

Maybe you chose unwisely?............(get ATI next time) unless
you have a valid reason for choosing a "prick" as your vendor?

As part of the open source community, I would think you have a 
repsonsibility to *reward those vendors that work generously with the 
greater open source community* ?

caveat emptor!

PS, if you card is very old, you can probably trade it for a
similar ATI card, imho. I do not waiste my time on nvidia*.
