If you can send it back citing the driver issues as the reason.

Linux sales are probably a tiny blip on the radar for them so I don't
expect this to make a big difference immediately but keeping constant
pressure of vendors like nvidia about openness is probably the best we
can do right now (obviously this means avoiding buying their products
as much as possible).
