Open nVidia Linux Driver Pledge Nearly Complete

Posted by kdawson on from the encouragement dept.

Ciarán Mooney writes to let us know that the Pledgebank drive to raise $10,000 for Project Nouvaeu is almost complete — at this moment it needs only 196 more people to sign up. Project Nouveau aims to provide open source 3D acceleration for nVidia cards. The drive was started by David Nielsen, whose blog explains what he hopes will happen.

    The pledge mentioned is however not supported by our project. We currently don't need any money and the person who set it up is not connected to our project. That's awesome. Now if more people browsed with Threshold -1 (or, you know, researched... but that's probably too much to ask!) the guy scamming money wouldn't get so rich.
