Can you add it as an update? You can always use Tumbleweed. I am now using Tumbleweed. And also, why do you think that 12.1 is going to be using 3.0 and not 3.1 in the first place? Touche!

I'm jumping into this Thread because of graphic drivers considerations :

- Could it be possible to backport patches from nouveau/linux kernel tree that enables open firmware ? Currently the lack of firmware make fermi unable to accelerate anything ; dumping firmware from nvidia blob is not something easy even for advanced user... The patch to backport is this one : http://cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6/commit/?id=1a679765205cd5c9211...

The nouveau developers need to push their code to the main kernel.org tree for us to be able to even start to consider it.

- Ivi bridge is scheluded for late 2011/ start 2012, meaning that users with this generation of hardware will have to wait for openSUSE 12.2. Maybe a backport from linux 3.1 would make things easier for end users here too.

Or they could use Tumbleweed :) Let's wait to see what 3.1 looks like, and when Ivy Bridge actually ships. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Intel already committed codes needed for IvyBridge to upstream. 3.0 kernel already contains the most of necessary stuff in the kernel side, AFAIK. Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
