Hmmm, I don't like your "sh.." about emu10k1. You know, this driver are
co-developed by Creative Labs, and they are *opensource*, unlike
NVidia's (you can see at http://opensource.creative.com for bug reports
about emu10k1, they have a Bugzilla). So for philosophical reasons, you
would better say that "NVidia sucks" than Creative. At least, Creative
has made a significant step in the right direction.

PS : Oooh, time is right to say that Creative is Heaven when compared to
GUILLEMOT (you know, the *french* multinational company with the "Maxi"
hardware product line). Do you believe that those b**t**ds don't even
answer to polite and argumented snail mail (I've tested). And as a game
editor (Ubi Soft), I'm sure they have a mail filter that junks every
email containing the words "Linux", "GNU", "GPL", "port", "opensource".
PPS : About Infogrames, I once asked them if there would be prosecution
if an old game concept, which they own the rights, could be ported to
Linux - never got any answer neither.
PPPS : Hopefully this message will be in the archive, and *they* will
read it one day. Everyone should know that Microsoft have two great
supporters in France (and as a Frenchman, I'm not pleased with that fact).
