           Summary: please use nouveau on Nvidida hardware as default when
                    possible
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 11.2
           Version: Alpha 0
          Platform: i686
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6)
Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.6

Just like Fedora announced for 11, we should also use the nouveau driver
(without 3D acceleration) as default for Nvidial graphics hardware over the old
and poor-featured nv. 

Among the core improvements is randr1.2 support, which will allow multi screen
setups even without the proprietary nvidia driver (legacy is about unusable
with KDE 4.x).
