Feature changed by: Karl Cheng (qantas94heavy) Feature #308930, revision 9 Title: Restricted Drivers Manager - Hackweek V: Unconfirmed + Hackweek V: Rejected by Karl Cheng (qantas94heavy) + reject reason: Not done. Priority Requester: Important - openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed + openSUSE Distribution: Rejected by Karl Cheng (qantas94heavy) + reject reason: SUSE lawyers have determined that openSUSE cannot do + this for the majority of proprietary drivers or firmware out there. Priority Requester: Desirable - openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed - Priority - Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Stratos Zolotas (elksi) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Restricted Drivers Manager (similar to Ubuntu's) for installing proprietary drivers especially for graphics cards. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Installation of binary graphics cards drivers should be more quick and simpler that the usual PMS approach. Also unreleased drivers (like it happens for the new version of Ubuntu) should enter the alpha and beta testing period. It will be a nice feature to provide updates for this drivers as well, through the same Restricted Drivers Manager. Discussion: #1: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2010-02-04 20:19:40) You don't have to do it via PMS. Use the KMPs instead, Luke! See FATE#308936. #2: Stratos Zolotas (elksi) (2010-02-04 20:55:01) Enlighten me. I'm not getting it... -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308930
