Stefan I got several bug reports that card XY was recognized using driver A and now driver fbdev. I know that there were some changes which forced you to use fbdev instead of another driver but people out there doesn't seem to know I think it would be helpful to provide at least a list of changed cards within the release-notes Thanks -- 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.
