It'll take a long time for them to rebuild their reputation on that front. I threw away a pile of perfectly serviceable NVIDIA desktop boards a while back because they were "supported", but they couldn't do stuff like run modern compositors or even XScreenSaver.
These were high-end boards that worked fine in Linux when I bought them (as long as you were willing to periodically patch + recompile the kernel from a text console).
Anyway, once they have feature parity with Windows + current CUDA with a 100% open source stack going back a decade, then I'll consider them again. Until then, I'll happily buy an AMD that's 90% as fast for the same price.
