[Bug 231190] New: automate nvidia installation
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=231190 Summary: automate nvidia installation Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: 64bit OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gassauer@kde.org QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Hi! currently it is necessary to a) find the installation summary in http://en.opensuse.org/NVIDIA b) execute all this manually IMHO it would be rather user friendly to add the YUM repository automaticaly if a nvidia card is detected and check the packages for installation during the final update. IMHO no end user will ever install nvidia 3D support the way it is now. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

I know yast is able to include foreign repositories in the very first step of the installation. So everything needed to setup an additional installation source is there in yast -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Or at least give a hint where to find the necessary information. It's the task of a world class distribution to make the installation process as easy as possible, and nvidia (and other) graphics cards are found in many of today computers. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
