Certainly not an issue that could be solved on yast2-network level - this is something for libzypp maintainers (maybe pulling in related packages when certain hardware is detected already works somehow, but I'm really no expert in this).
Yes, this would be (an already working) solution, if the package was in the main distro repository. But that's not the case, and therefore nothing for libzypp, this must be done elsewhere (zypp is not intened to produce such messages, nevertheless, it can be probably be used to check for such hardware, if looking for a unique modalias in system's 'provides' is enough to do this). yast2-network looks to me like a good place - it could inform the user during the configuration of network. Bubli, Jirko, Duncan, please decide whether to do it in yast or elsewhere. BTW, it would be nice if we could develop some (or find an existing) system-wide solution for these kinds of things and just use that from yast or anywhere else. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
