please dont get me wrong (even though i think most of you already
have), i own my graditude for the livelihood i am having to
linux,linus and co.


this discussion is totally for betterment of the new users who should
not be forced to become developers in order to get a trival thing
running on their desktop/laptop, like device driver.


The new user who don't want to be developer should
get his linux from a linux distributor, who will
provide _all_ supported drivers auto-installed
during a normal install. No development by the user,
no compiling.
