Feature changed by: Stratos Zolotas (elksi)
Feature #308930, revision 6
  Title: Restricted Drivers Manager
   
  openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed
  Priority
      Requester: Desirable
   
  Requested by: Stratos Zolotas (elksi)
  Partner organization: openSUSE.org
   
Description:
  Restricted Drivers Manager (similar to Ubuntu's) for installing
  proprietary drivers especially for graphics cards.
   
  Business case (Partner benefit):
  openSUSE.org: Installation of binary graphics cards drivers should be
  more quick and simpler that the usual PMS approach. Also unreleased
  drivers (like it happens for the new version of Ubuntu) should enter
  the alpha and beta testing period. It will be a nice feature to provide
  updates for this drivers as well, through the same Restricted Drivers
  Manager.

  You don't have to do it via PMS. Use the KMPs instead, Luke! See
  FATE#308936.
