In _theory_ each of them is covering a larger number of chipsets. In practice, the current versions break some older card.
Now the question would be if it would be hard to 'save' the package when a new driver version comes out, e.g. in some X11:Drivers:Video:Previous?
Finding a project to eventually host the resulting binaries will then be the next step,
No, this would be the first step. Second step would be to find someone, who does the packaging work.
I don't understand: when the fglrx- package is updated to a new fglrx driver version, make a copy of the curent package:
osc copypac X11:Drivers:Video fglrxG02 X11:Drivers:Video:Previous fglrx-9.2
That's all I'm talking about.
Oh. I believe this is still possible thanks to "osc log"/"osc up -r<rev>" - back to 2009-03-26. Unfortunately I accidently removed the repo at this date. So the history before got lost completely. :-( This brings us: ati-fglrxG02 ------------ 8.620 - Catalyst 9.6 8.612 - Catalyst 9.5 8.602 - Catalyst 9.4 ati-fglrxG01 ------------ 8.593 - Catalyst 9.3 ati-fglrx --------- 8.28.8 (pre Catalyst era - only useful for SLE10) nvidia-gfxG02 ------------- 185.18.14 180.51 180.44 180.29 nvidia-gfxG01 ------------- 173.14.18 nvidia-gfx ---------- 96.43.11 CU, Stefan Public Key available ------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Dirsch (Res. & Dev.)
