What repository are you using for Factory?
Patrick,
I'm using the following:
http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/ope nSUSE_Factory/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Community/openSUSE_F actory/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE%3a/KDE3/openSUSE_Factory/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_Factory/ http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/packman/suse/11.1/
Yes, there can be some compatibility issues with Packman and factory but that's the price I pay for being on the "bleeding edge". Actually, the system is really stable and usable at the moment. Occasionally there is a glitch with an update but nothing I haven't been able to resolve.
Regards,
NVidia proprietary drivers wouldn't work because of Kernel:/HEAD repository. NVidia drivers needs kernel module compiled against your kernel and if you are not running 11.1 kernel... You can use nv driver (which doesn't have 3D and I think it doesn't support dual mode).
I know, but I don't have the problem. The nvidia driver version 185.18.29 compiles fine against the 2.6.30.2-1 kernel sources from Kernel:/HEAD. No problems whatsoever. I was providing advice to someone else who was having problems getting the same video card going on 11.1 (which for some reason didn't install the correct kernel module via Yast). My advice was to follow the manual installation route (from source) but make sure that the appropriate kernel sources are installed and prepped first. -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
