The best way to win this "tough battle" is to provide precise
instructions on how to get rid of NVIDIA kernel modules once there're
installed. If you can't dig this I don't believe it's any use
discussing.
I
honestly don't care if you think we
should support nvidia binary blobs or not.
Where did I say you should "support nvidia binary blobs"? Is giving
instructions on how to uninstall the module any way to support NVIDIA
drivers?
In my world, if you explain how to install the NVIDIA driver and get
teh Nouveau driver out of the way -- and RPMFusion does this! -- you
support NVIDIA. If you do the opposite, you support Nouveau.
If Nouveau developers can't understand this, my take is that, as bad as
NVIDIA support can be, Nouveau's going to be worst. Providing
instructions on how to install a driver seems to me like a bare minimum.
If you want your expensive video card to work then use the Nvidia
drivers...
Simple is it not
