What's that for a dumb answer !!
I thought linux aim is not to work only on specific hw like mac ! I can't buy 
another hw, only because of such a issue. The aim of linux is to be as 
compliant as possible. A lot of people are experiencing that issue on mac, hp, 
samsung with geforce, and I don't think the linux distribution can ask all 
those user to buy an AMD !!!!!!!!

A solution has already be found on nouveau, so I think it could be possible to 
integrate it in the kernel
