One of my new year's resolutions is to upgrade the monitor on my Fedora

I've been looking at a 34" curved 3440 x 1440 monitor. But first I want
to make sure it actually makes sense to get such a large monitor for
Linux and that there's a graphics card on the market that works well
with Fedora and that can drive such a large monitor. I would prefer an
open source driver, but I'm prepared to install a blob if I have to.
I'm not interested in gaming so that's not an issue, it's the real
estate I'm after.

Any thoughts/recommendations?
Are you sure you really want such a large monitor? I'm sitting about 24" away from a 
24" monitor, and I don't see how I'd want a larger one, unless perhaps I were doing 
CAD design,
where it would be helpful to see more (or all) of whatever you're designing all 
on one page at the same time. And of course, turn your head to the relevant 
part of the screen.

I would suggest you'd think hard about spending that much money on a monitor 
that you might not really want once you had it.

Just a thought.
