Build it locally in your home project and submit it to a development project, from where it can go to TW and Leap. Check for similar packages to find a suitable project. hardware for example?

Re: Is it possible for Slowroll to officially support the integrity of NVidia and VMWare modules?

by Xu Zhao

I will be interested to help and contribute if Slowroll claims that its kernel should support a selected group of close-sourced drivers (NVidia, AMDGPU Pro, VMWare), including adding testing, adding patches, etc. Of course, we can add a cadence that if a module blocks kernel upgrade for too long (say 2 weeks), we should drop it. I also feel that without this claim, Slowroll is much less attractive to me. Best, Xu -- Xu Zhao i(a)xuzhao.net On Wed, Sep 27, 2023, at 11:52 AM, Axel Braun wrote: > Hi, > > > Am Dienstag, 26.

I made some cloud/VM images based on the Leap ones.

The way I see it, project repositories should not be used as download sources, too many library mismatches are possible. Just try it and if it works it will be submitted to Factory, from where it will eventually trickle down to Slowroll. If anything, I'm having second thoughts about that Fedora patch setting a made up soversion...

Re: vote on Slowroll name

by Christian Lanig

Hi, I agree with this view below. I do not see a reason to consider "Slowroll" "slow" and to name it like something "slow" for the users. I also think that it might be considered rolling a bit haltingly, so I don't consider it necessary to have rolling in the name either. From my perspective the release cycle is increased to 1-2 months (at least this is what I understood), and this doesn't mean something is slow in my point of view, but just having stronger periodic ticks. This is why I prefer "Pulse", but "Clockwork" or "Lighthouse" would be appealing to me as well. If I got wrong what Slowroll actually is - based on the descriptions - feel free to correct me.
