rt-sources, as supported by Ingo, Thomas, Steven, Daniel and others,
has *never* supported non-open source video drivers. You can use them
but real-time performance has never been guaranteed, they say it never
will be guaranteed, and don't bother reporting rt-problems if you use
one. The problem with the closed source drivers is there is no way to
look at the code to guarantee it's written in a real-time safe manner.
Therefore you use them at your own risk in terms of real-time
operation.
