jones_supa writes "NVIDIA's PR department has issued a statement following the harsh comments by Linus Torvalds last week where he referred to the graphics company as the single worst company he's ever dealt with, called them out on not supporting Optimus, and other issues. Basically the company replied they're committed to Linux using their proprietary driver that is largely common across platforms, and this allows for same-day Linux support with full OpenGL implementation. They also say that they're active in ARM Linux for Tegra and support a wide range of hardware under Linux. Despite having not made any commitment to better support Optimus under Linux nor providing technical assistance to the Nouveau community, NVIDIA assures us that 'at the end of the day, providing a consistent GPU experience across multiple platforms for all of our customers continues to be one of our key goals.'"http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=NVIDIA+Responds+To+Linus+Torvalds%3A+h ttp%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FKkoKJ1)http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Flinux.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F12%2F06%2F20%2F1237257%2Fnvidia-responds-to-linus-torvalds%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfa cebook)http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://linux.slashdot.org/story/12/06/20/1237257/nvidia-responds-to-linus-torvalds?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
