No, this is copyright we're talking about here. The corporations have already lobbied congress to make sure that copyright >violations carry a hefty penalty. We have all the stick we need. We can hit them where it hurts -- in the bottom line. Well you say lawsuit and I suppose that is your answer. But every person who has posted seems all they want is their nVidia card to work in Linux. Some want the source code - but it doesn't look like they are going to get that right now. So if you say lawsuit - don't you think nVidia would just say screw you - no more drivers for Linux at all? While Linux is growing in popularity - but it doesn't hold that much water.
