I'm not sure if you saw my posting to question@freebsd.org but with the
announcement of A|W porting Maya v3.0 to Linux, and the expected slew of
related applications that will follow, we need the driver support from
Nvidia ESPECIALLY when considering their recent push towards workstation
solutions (quadro2 line.) Are there many high end cards which require
more than an Xserver and/or driver which may already be available? (ala
nvidia)
