Oh, I guess you misunderstood me here indeed. I was trying to say,
that I think, that many people who are such extremist "free software
zealots" that they would not buy NVidia products (like me) quite often
also are people who know their way around a bit with compiling stuff
etc. 

I would love if people who don't know how to compile would also not
buy hardware without capable open source drivers, but to be honest: I
don't know a many people like this. I would love to be proven wrong in
this regard soon.

About installing Gem: I think it should be a simple as "apt-get
install gem" and thankfully most of the time it just is.

Ciao
