I think it means that the problem occurs so frequently that they
do not want to be bothered with bug reports -- and rightly so.
My great disappointment is that xorg or nvidia or whoever was
responsible had decided to stop the legacy nv driver that was
part of xorg itself. I don't do gaming and I have no need for
ultra-high performance graphics. The nv driver was always good
enough for me.
But development stopped on nv a few years ago and it no longer
supports the newer Nvidia cards.
