Open 3D support for nvidia devices would be great but it's a HUGE
undertaking.  To get an idea how hard, try to make sense of the open
source 3D driver for Via Unichrome devices, which was based on an
obfuscated open source driver from the vendor.  I wonder if anyone is
focusing on easier stuff like getting decent 2D performance at high
resolution and solving the dual head issues with the nv driver.
