Re: [opensuse] Fw: Driver Repository for openSUSE / SuSE Linux Enterprise (nVidia)

Nevertheless, I'm trying to find a solution suitable for the user (if the kernel maintainers have a problem with legal issues on the nvidia drivers, THEY should sue them). I think WE of the opensuse.org
should focus on our users and to make it conveniant for them. Novell takes somewhat a strange position in this game, as they released RPMs for SLE{D,S}, which luckily work with SuSE Linux 10.1 (even

it's not the ACTUAL driver anymore). But they're NOT willing to create new RPMs for openSUSE nor are there RPMs with the actual driver.
The RPMs for SLES are hosted by nvidia, not by Novell. Don't know who builds them, but that's irrelevant.
According nVidia, they were built by Novell (see the first mail in this thread) But as you said, it's irrelevant, especially for the solution approach I have. I just need the requested help.

Well, sorry, I cannot help you. I personally would appreciate nVidia module packages because I use the nVidia installer myself. For KMPs in general, I sent you a private message.
