      That’s not the case for the newer open source drivers from nvidia. They’re only compatible with the last few generations of cards but they’re performant and the only feature they lack is CUDA to my knowledge. Not talking nouveau here

        Oh ok, that’s pretty good then.
        But I do hope we’ll get an open cuda replacement soon and some sort of gpu partitionning/ vgpu capability

        No they have CUDA. The open driver from Nvidia just means the kernel module has an open source license. They are still the same proprietary pieces of shit that you know and love from a user space perspective.

          “nouveau” != “Nvidia open source drivers”. Nouveau was community made by reverse engineering. Nvidia has released their own open source drivers now.
