Last week, Phoronix broke a story about the kernel DRM group over at FreeDesktop.org submitting a pull request for their code of conduct to be included in the kernel docs for the DRM subsystem. The next day it was merged.

I'm particularly interested in if they think this will keep Linus from saying hurtful things to them over lousy code. Discuss.

    No practical experience. But in general avoid NVidia cards. If you have to use them, try the Nouveau driver but NVidia actually makes FreeBSD drivers too. But as always it's a *blob*. Then there's the VESA BIOS driver, but that is in general only good for desktop and browser use. Still NVidia tries all kinds of shenanigans [tomshardware.com].

    Intel or AMD/ATI graphics is usually a better choice in that order.
