nvidia has released opensource kernel level drivers

"Not every GPU is compatible with the open-source GPU kernel modules.

For cutting-edge platforms such as NVIDIA Grace Hopper or NVIDIA Blackwell, you must use the open-source GPU kernel modules. The proprietary drivers are unsupported on these platforms." - developer.nvidia.com

Only 9 years after AMD, and 13 years after Linus said "fuck you Nvidia" during a talk for being such a difficult company to work with.
