It was with pre 6 series cards, ir, 5,4.... because they are the ones
not supported with x1.11 and Nvidia driver, GF 6 and up don't matter
as they are supported by the proprietary driver.
So what I was meaning was that if the nouveau support is good for pre
6 series cards, ie 4,5 then it is fine as that can be used as a
workaround until the nvidia driver is compatible again.
i hope that that is clearer.
