[Lexicon 0]

Making a daily update. I have a NVIDIA graphics card, see:

 

1. urpmi.update -a

2. urpmi --auto-select

 

..... kdeplasma-addons 4.2.3 0.2mdv2009.1 i586

plasma-applet-showdesktop 4.2.3 0.2mdv2009.1 i586

plasma-applet-yawp 0.2.3 1mdv2009.1 i586

x11-driver-video-intel 2.7.0 1.0.1mdv2009> i586

x11-driver-video-sisimedia 0.9.1 1.20080808.6> i586

 

I have nvidia video card. I have to manually install packages ....Lex

I'm having a similar issue. I have a Dell Inspiron, with a nvidia video card, and software management is telling me that I need this x11-driver-video-sismedia 1.20080808.6 driver.

 

I was curious as to why this might be required... Is it just an addition to the drivers that would be loaded on a new install?

There should be some sort of xorg metapackage which is about to be updated.
