15th Nov 2006, 00:50 GMT
Linux.com has this report from the latest Ubuntu Developers Summit. "The announcement that Ubuntu will ship binary drivers by default in Feisty is getting a lot of negative commentary from users and Ubuntu members alike. Of course, there's also a vocal contingent that complains that Ubuntu and other distros are unsuitable for general users because they don't ship with Nvidia or other binary drivers enabled. There's no position here that will satisfy all users."
