Yeah, I don't care about nvidia drivers, either. AMD doesn't need this in the kernel anymore than nvidia does (and they don't). Kernel modules work just fine for drivers. I don't want some convoluted shit crammed into mainline because <company> chooses to ignore feedback about their code. I am perfectly fine with this one guy shooting down AMD's pretentious attitude here. If it weren't for those kernel devs, good luck getting a Linux system to "boot and function as a normal user's desktop" because of all the crap that would be in there. Like systemd, just piles of crap in a confused, kitchen-sink orgy.

I have come to fear that we will eventually need GPU drivers in the kernel directly, thanks to more and more of the graphics code out there assuming DRM/DRI etc.
