Feature changed by: Stephan Binner (Beineri) Feature #308323, revision 4 Title: Integration Dynamic Kernel Module Support openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important - Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed - Priority - Requester: Important Requested by: Thomas Beimel (rheydtergekko) Description: Integrate DKMS in openSuSE repositories Especially for more unexperienced users, it is a hassle to compile kernel modules again and again if a kernel update is executed automatically. For such users it would be much easier if kernel modules e.g. needed for virtual machines like VirtualBox would be recompiled and reconfigured automatically like in other distributions like Ubuntu, Fedora,... with DKMS. I think DKMS is one great feature that openSuSE misses and has to include. Example why DKMS is so important: Different rather unexperienced users that I convinced using Linux like the GUI etc. and miss the abilities to work with simple commands on the terminal. So if they cannot get help from another person, they would not be able to use their preconfigured virtual machine anymore because of an mandatory kernel update that is made automatically. Please add Dynamic Kernel Module Support to SuSE soon!
