Comment # 18 on bug 1173682 from Ricardo Minnaard

How do the AMD drives solve this? Or do they have the same issue?
I���ve been in Suse since Novell bought it, so I���ll be fine. But I���m noticing a
Linux growth around me. As me, more people are switching to Linux. People are
playing A+ games now on Linux. See YouTube, it���s flooding with gaming on Linux
vids.

Not being able to run these drives is a disaster IMO. It sets Linux back
several years. Yet I do understand the security trait off. I���m no developer, so
I���m not going to lay down some hard critics.

And if I was able to be part of the solution I���d try. My understanding is too
little. If it was up to me, I���d show a pop-up window or a big splash screen in
the GUI informing a user the steps to take to get around this. A text somewhere
in some release notes isn���t enough. But that is my personal opinion. Ubuntu has
or had this wizard for proprietary drivers. Something like that to explain a
user why it doesn���t work with secure boot.
