https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219456 ------- Comment #31 from eich@novell.com 2007-01-05 04:20 MST ------- I'm not sure if I have made myself clear. My idea was that the installation program for the nvidia/fireglx driver *temporarily* replaces the link of the Xserver binary. Once the binary has run sucessfully it will itself move back the link. Unloading the kernel module every time will trigger complaints by people who are concerned about short startup times as it will require the Xserver to reload the kernel module every time it is restarted. Maybe I'm missing someting but I don't see any benefit unloading this module every time the Xserver gets restarted. I only see a need in the particular situation where the X and kernel drivers have been updated and the loaded kernel driver doesn't match what is needed by the X driver any more. I don't care if you want to put the 'wrapper' into /usr/bin/X11. I just don't want to see it used all the time. However my idea was that the installer itself can provide this script. It is confusing and people who don't know about the nvidia/fireglx situation (and don't care about either driver) will wonder what we are up to. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
