(since we could use more help on QA when we're opening backports). i think your request is a sensible one and hope you're willing to help out to get it into mga2. I would advise you if you find those people to state so in the bug report. The, hopefully that bug will be finished and backports will be opened. </PRE> <!--endarticle--> <HR> <P><UL> <!--threads--> <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="021836.html">[Mageia-dev] What's the point of the latest nvidia update? </A></li> <LI>Next message: <A HREF="021869.html">[Mageia-dev] What's the point of the latest nvidia update? </A></li> <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> <a href="date.html#21837">[ date ]</a> <a href="thread.html#21837">[ thread ]</a> <a href="subject.html#21837">[ subject ]</a> <a href="author.html#21837">[ author ]</a> </LI> </UL> <hr> <a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev mailing list</a><br> </body></html>
