We reported last week after the launch of the GeForce 8800GT graphics card that a new NVIDIA Linux driver is imminent. This new 8800GT-supportive driver didn't make it onto the Internet last week, so it looks like the new Linux (and likely Solaris and FreeBSD) driver will be released this week. This graphics driver is considered a high priority item by NVIDIA. Once this driver is released, we hope to deliver GeForce 8800GT benchmarks shortly after the software launch.
