when reinstalling the driver
Note that this is a common situation. Esp. now that there are several versions of the nvidia drivers. I may go from nvidia to nvidiaG01 and vice versa, from RPM to installer and vice versa etc.. I may have the nvidia driver installed, but decided to no longer use it, but haven't uninstalled yet. A month later, I am confident with the nv driver and decide to uninstall the nvidia driver. You'll also overwrite my working nv xorg, possibly overwriting other fine-tuning I made. I question the basic assumption that installing and uninstalling a binary should modify a central configuration file, without user confirmation. These cases above are at least as likely as me going from nvidia to nv. Therefore, they need to be considered. That's what this bug asks for. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
