How many of you have ever gotten the feeling that some of the developers with Novell bugzilla work harder trying to punt bugs than they do actually trying to understand whether a valid problem exists or not?

This is very much not true. If there is a software problem in a core package - especially the kernel, it will get attention, and lots of it In this case however, it just looks like accessing the graphics card in any form more advanced than a frame buffer triggers a hardware error. As I mentioned in the other mail, the software doesn't analyse anything, this message is coming from the hardware itself. If the message is wrong, the hardware vendor is still to blame, for sending bad machine check exceptions Anders -- Madness takes its toll -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
