    The sane ones of us know well that a faulty driver is a faulty driver, but! Linux culture is different. Which is why this happened so spectacularly with Windows. EDIT: and not with Linux

      I’ve had the proprietary Nvidia driver crash my whole system a few times. Hoping their new open-source driver (not nouveau, I mean the new out-of-tree open-source one) is better.

        I had X crash due to Nvidia under FreeBSD a few times, and fewer kernel panics due to it. Never used Linux with Nvidia though.
