</I>&gt;&gt;<i> regarding <A HREF="http://check.mageia.org/cauldron/tmb/dependencies.html">http://check.mageia.org/cauldron/tmb/dependencies.html</A> do you
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> know if nvidia173/kmod-nvidia173 and nvidia-96xx/kmod-nvidia96xx should

</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Well,
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> kmod-nvidia96xx/173 and the matching nvidia*kernel*latest can simply be
</I>&gt;<i> nuked from the repos as they are Cauldron only packages
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> So it leaves theese:
</I>&gt;<i> dkms-nvidia96xx
</I>&gt;<i> nvidia96xx-devel
</I>&gt;<i> nvidia96xx-doc-html
</I>&gt;<i> x11-driver-video-nvidia96xx
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> dkms-nvidia173
</I>&gt;<i> nvidia173-cuda
</I>&gt;<i> nvidia173-devel
</I>&gt;<i> nvidia173-doc-html
</I>&gt;<i> x11-driver-video-nvidia173
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I guess the dkms-nvidia96xx/173 packages should be obsoleted by kernel,
</I>&gt;<i> and the x11-driver-video-nvidia96xx/173 should be obsoleted by
</I>&gt;<i> x11-driver-video-nouveau.
</I>
Either that or add conflicts to X11 server, I guess.

&gt;<i> Hmmm, do we need triggers to handle gl.conf for nvidia like we need for
</I>&gt;<i> fglrx ?
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Anssi, wdyt ?
</I>
harddrake_service should already change the driver if ldetect-lst
indicates so.


&gt;&gt;<i> I don't know anything about nvidia but internet says 173 and 96xx are
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> not compatible with x11-server 1.11
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Compatibility with 1.10 was added in the latest version, in August last
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> year, 6 months after 1.10 was released, and a week before 1.11 was
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> released. It has now been more than 6 months since 1.11 was released,
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 1.12 was released last month, so should we still expect 1.11 (and recent
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> kernels) support to happen?
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> It does not really seem like nVidia will support them, but I can be wrong...
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Anssi ?
</I>
I don't have any additional information, but I wouldn't rule new
releases out, there have been long delays previously as well...
