You are, the fact that nouveau is an alternative to the nvidia binary drivers. I have an Nvidia card on this computer and haven't used the binary drivers in years, avoiding the various problems that keep popping up here and elsewhere. I'm not a gamer (unless you count kpat) and don't need ultimate 3D acceleration, nouveau suits my needs perfectly, especially the need for things to just work. -- Neil Bothwick X-Modem- A device on the losing end of an encounter with lightning.
