[Bug 107] Review Request: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-beta - NVIDIA's beta proprietary display driver for NVIDIA graphic cards

http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107 Thorsten Leemhuis <fedora(a)leemhuis.info&gt; changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |fedora(a)leemhuis.info --- Comment #1 from Thorsten Leemhuis <fedora(a)leemhuis.info&gt; 2008-11-01 15:16:16 --- first let me say thx for driving this forward. I guess a lot of people will be glad if we start shipping betas But there is one thing I'd like to know: How will this interact with the stock drivers in times when the beta becomes final and no new beta is yet available? A example might help to better outline what I'd like to know (version numbers made up). - let's first assume xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-123.3 and xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-beta-124.1 are in the repo. - let' further assume the nvidia version 124.3 becomes the new "stable" driver a few weeks later. Will xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-124.3-1 obsolete xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-beta-124.1-1? What happens to the beta kmods? Will yum remove them automatically (I think so, but would be nice to check that before the packages enter the repo)? - let's further assume that nvidia a few weeks later releases a new beta 125.1; will those users that installed xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-beta-124.1 earlier get xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-beta-125.1 automatically installed (note, I'm not even sure if we want that or not; I currently tend a bit to "we want that") -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
