Yeah I think Nvidia were hostile to Linux when they saw no value in it. Now it's where the machine learning is. It's the OS powering the whole AI hype train. Then there is also Steamdeck making Linux gaming not a complete write off anymore.

The days of Nvidia ignoring Linux is over.

For real. Nvidia is even selling desktop Linux computers now, with the launch of the DGX Spark.

The "F you Nvidia" Linus Torvalds moment in 2012 is a meme that will not die.
