@Troy I can appreciate your point of view, but from our perspective we
have had 3 months of no response from developers. Then told it wont be
fixed in Gutsy, and now told its 'not our problem, go and complain to
nVidia'. This is hardly kind to Ubuntu's long suffering users.

Somehow I cant imagine nVidia taking much notice of Joe Public, and to
be fair why should they. We are not proffesional debuggers so for all
they know the problem is not even with their driver, and we are not in a
position to prove to them otherwise. Surely nVidia are more likely to
take notice of professional bodies like Ubuntu/Canonical who's
documentation and opinions would carry more weight and so more likely
get noticed and acted upon. Maybe Ubuntu/Canonical could enter into
dialog with nVidia over these issues.

But from the none technical users perspective its a case of install
Windows and the graphics works ok, install Linux and they lock up (even
though both drivers come from nVidia), which for whatever reasons is not
a nice place to be. But realistically how can a non technical or none
professional user tell nVidia their drivers are no good.
