Feature changed by: Bruno Friedmann (bruno_friedmann) Feature #312334, revision 2 Title: Installing video card drivers from the official openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Zajączkowski Marcin (edved) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: While searching through many pages of information about Linux and OpenSUSE that I found complaining. For the installation of graphics card drivers from the manufacturer. These appear in the repository often result in errors and critical system states. I think that when you install an option I should be asking whether to install the drivers or compile a formal closed. When chosen to be the official drivers are able to download the script itself from the pack, and compile the relevant modules into the kernel. Also, the appropriate settings in the xorg configuration. This is mainly on the users complain that they used Ubuntu. + Discussion: + #1: Bruno Friedmann (bruno_friedmann) (2011-05-17 15:00:01) + If I can understand how frustrating could be the installation of video + drivers ( read binary proprietary crap ). You should precise that in + your feature. I would prefer to see an increasing amount of tester with + a big variety of grafics hardware (Intel, Nvidia, ATI/AMD) testing as + soon as possible factory and next build ( saying around M3/M4 ). It + will benefit all real free driver developpement and packaging. + There's nothing really cool you can do with proprio drivers. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312334
