https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=480782 Summary: please use nouveau on Nvidida hardware as default when possible Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Alpha 0 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: danielstefanmader@web.de QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.6 Just like Fedora announced for 11, we should also use the nouveau driver (without 3D acceleration) as default for Nvidial graphics hardware over the old and poor-featured nv. Among the core improvements is randr1.2 support, which will allow multi screen setups even without the proprietary nvidia driver (legacy is about unusable with KDE 4.x). http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NouveauAsDefault Reproducible: Always -- 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.

But how about including it in xorg-x11-driver-video or xorg-x11-driver-nouveau to make it easier for people to use it. Atleast the 2d part seems solid if Fedora thinks about using it for default. -- 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.

Sorry, it's not the intention of the nouveau project to produce a distribution ready driver - talked with Stephane (not Stefan) from the project about that. Fedora has it because it's a community project. The nouveau driver is also packaged in openSUSE, and sometimes it even compiles. -- 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.
