TW - estimate for download.nvidia.com/opensuse/tumbleweed update for 6.10 kernel?
Devs, Just checking in on if we have an estimate yet on when the Nvidia drivers will be updated for the 6.10 kernel for Tumbleweed? I've been watching the repo for change for the past several weeks expecting an update anytime. In the interim, I've set up a local repo with packages Patrick was kind enough to build with the 6.10 patch for G04 (390.xx) and G05 (470/535) drivers, but with Tumbleweed being a rolling release, I kind of expected the driver updates to at least be within a week of when the new kernel appears in the update repos. Any thought on when the official TW Nvidia repo will be updated with drivers for the current TW kernel? My intent is to keep my TW install as official as possible to prevent random rolling surprises along the way. That seems to be the best policy with rolling-releases. I've got Arch installs that have rolled along since July 2011 sticking to that principal. Anyway, this isn't a complaint, I'm just trying to get an idea when I can switch packages back to the official repo? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Yes very nice of him! This entire driver issue could not have come at a worse time, I'm in the middle of building a new box and having to move all my rags into it, without my go2 system!
