How else is that supposed to work?

You either fix a driver in the kernel or a driver outside the kernel, it's not going to make that big of a difference to the person who has to fix it.





The difference is that the end user doesn't have to do it. Someone else is going to do it. Just like it is on Windows.

That only works because Windows has a large marketshare, the day it drops to 10%, users will have to write their own drivers as well
