Screen shot (YaST2) showing automatic dependencies for online update
After installing a ATI/AMD Radeon RX560 graphics card and calling updates, the
following modules were automatically added to the update:
libvdpau_r600-18.0.2-lp150.17.2.x86_64
libvdpau_r300-18.0.2-lp150.17.2.x86_64
libvdpau_radeonsi-18.0.2-lp150.17.2.x86_64
xf86-video-ati-18.0.1-lp150.1.1.x86_64
xf86-video-mach64-6.9.5-lp150.1.4.x86_64
xf86-video-r128-6.10.2-lp150.1.8.x86_64
Actually I still have a PC with a 90MHz Pentium CPU and a PCI ATI Mach64
Graphics card, but that is something like 20 years old. Likewise the R128 is
somewhat newer, but still quite old, and I'm unsure about the others...
What is the reason to add those packages? Just adding everything that looks
like an AMD (formerly ATI) graphics card?
