Well, for instance, I don't think you could use the 2006 NVIDIA driver very successfully on 2007 (or vice versa) because of the rearrangement of X.org that happened during the 2007 cycle. The dkms-nvidia package would likely be fine but I think the nvidia package would have problems. If something like that were to happen during the cycle for the next release, the Cooker package might stop working on 2007. -- adamw _______________________________________________ PLF-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://www.zarb.org/mailman/listinfo/plf-discuss
