Nvidia's stuff all has proprietary drivers. They are very resistant to telling anyone anything about how their stuff works, so the non-proprietary drivers are reverse-engineered, a slow and tedious and generally partial process. FLOSS support for anything Nvidia will generally suck. The Redhat guys aren't going to even try to fix that, because until Nvidia decides that it wants to have good FLOSS drivers out there, there won't be any. Redhat can't change that. People *not buying* Nvidia anything for use with with Linux and making it clear to Nvidia what they were doing *might* start to change that, but I doubt it.
