My concern is that if we split the package and don't install the driver at all we cause regressions on systems where the card is properly supported. And we have no chance to introduce fixes via updates as the driver isn't installed in the first place. So do we know which cards are well supported by Nouveau and which ones not? If that is the case we could 2a) do the split but put proper hardware supplements on the extra package to make sure it's only installed if the right hardware is present or 2b) similar to Antonios suggestion in 1.5 maintain a builtin whitelist, so the driver itself can be installed always but only activates itself when the card is whitelisted. That way we keep the option of having an update fix the driver for more cards. Other ideas: 3) do something in yast a) switch default desktop to gnome if Nouveau b) change default desktop in general c) warn if KDE is used on Nouveau systems d) warn about instablities with Nouveau in general -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
