Does it have to be a reverse engineered Nvidia driver? It's a genuine question, I'm not trying to be arsy here. I really don't know enough on this subject so please forgive me if I ask (what to others would be) a blatantly obvious question. We have plenty of other drivers doing the same job as proprietary software that has not been reverse engineered...or do we?
Well, a graphics card or any other piece of hardware can be a pretty complex thing.... registers to load, instruction sets, etc. How does one find out all that information without doing some reverse engineering....? If the vendor doesn't want to part with that information.... a graphics card is just a piece of junk. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
