Why ?.
What ever gave you the impression that it was legal to create a
"Proprietry" kernel driver for Linux in the first place.
The fact that Nvidia and ATI get away with it?
I have the nvidia GeForce4 driver: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1.
$ ls NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1/usr/src/nv/
Makefile@ makedevices.sh* nv-vm.c nv_compiler.h os-agp.c
os-registry.c
Makefile.kbuild makefile nv-vm.h nvidia.ko os-agp.h
os-registry.o
Makefile.nvidia nv-kernel.o nv-vm.o nvidia.mod.c os-agp.o
pat.h
README nv-linux.h nv.c nvidia.mod.o os-interface.c
precompiled/
conftest.sh nv-memdbg.h nv.h nvidia.o os-interface.h
rmretval.h
gcc-version-check.c nv-misc.h nv.o nvtypes.h os-interface.o
So it seems nvidia has their kernel module `open'. Is it?
