Does this mean we won't see ATI/NVidia's graphics drivers in their future releases? How much of the current hardware will be impacted by such a policy?
You never have seen the ATI/nVidia binary drivers as part of the release. A script was provided for nVidia that downloaded the driver from the nVidia website, and did the commands to get it installed. So there is no "impact" as such. (That is if you ignore the fact that this script is not in 10.1, thus making it harder for Joe Public to use accelerated Gfx on their system.) --
Actually in 10.1 there is a script to do this tiny-nvidia-installer --update will download the driver and compile the kernel module. -- Don -- 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
