Nonsense.

I've run nothing but nvidia's binary drivers for the past 5 years
under SuSE, Mandrake, and now Fedora and received all kinds of help.

For the record, I have not once had a kernel crash due to the nvidia
drivers.  I have, on the other hand, received some of the best help
I've ever gotten from Mark Vojkovich who works (worked?)  at nvidia
and (I believe) is one of the authors of the driver.  Due to the
binary driver, I've been able to driver non-standard displays of all
kinds which no OS driver had a prayer of driving.  Nothing to do with
3D either.
