That's not the kernel driver, only the Xorg drivers, as per the list of the files contained in this package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist& word=nvidia-glx&version=edgy&arch=i386
so I don't have a problem with them being distributed.
I see. What of http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/misc/nvidia-kernel-source ?
That's just the source code for the module, you have to install it and build it yourself. It is the end result of that action that is not able to be distributed under the GPL. This is how Ubuntu handles the issue with this driver, a legal solution, but not the nicest :) thanks, greg k-h --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
