Ugh... the network driver portion of the nforce drivers is *not*

Then using the diver on FreeBSD will be a NVidia's license violation,
wouldn't it? One more reason to keep it out of the tree.
Just the network driver... the audio driver in the tarball is still GPL'd.
Either which way I doubt either driver will go into the tree. I don't see
any good reason to stick any of it in the kernel unless its absolutely
necessary.
I am not a religious person when it comes to licensing. I just don't like
GPL style restrictions.
Did you ever ask NVidia about they position on this?
Perhaps they are more flexible then you may think and this
whole discussion is simply pointless.
