           Summary: latex with graphicx package: Package graphics Error:
                    No driver specified.
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 11.1
           Version: Final
          Platform: i686
        OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.0.8)
Gecko/2009032600 SUSE/3.0.8-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.8

When using graphicx style like in this demo document:
\documentclass {article}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}

In diesem Text sollen die wichtigsten Befehle
\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{logo}

\end{document}

Latex reports this error:
..
! Package graphics Error: No driver specified.

See the graphics package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...

The included graphics is a .eps file. This happens only with the texlive on
openSuSE 11.1 not eg on a SLES10 machine with the very same file. A working fix
is to include the driver name in the the head of the file like:

\documentclass [dvips] {article}

But this of course means you have to edit possibly many files manually to get
them working again.

It looks similar to this bug report I found:
