Why should we? The script downloads the driver from Nvidias or ATI's site, that's a totally different thing.
Why can't OpenSUSE then have the same script? Whould that be easy enough to get the drivers?
I guess the script can only be used, provided Nvidia and ATi host KMPs for the relevant SUSE kernel.
Which works (by accident) for SUSE 10.1, since SLE10/10.1 use the same (kernel) code base.
As I understand it is doubtful that ATi and Nvidia will provide KMPs for openSUSE 10.2 kernel(s).
Correct.
I hope the last word hasn't been spoken on that matter.
I do hope so as well ...
It's really a feature that can help move a lot of people to Linux.. especially the ATi-owners. And also a feature that could set openSUSE a part from other distros. Has potential to be a killer feature.
