… no longer ß!
Since last friday, 195.36.15 is the recommended release for Linux x86_64.
This driver also sports the new “3D vision” stereo option for LCD screens on Quadro GPUs (see “Option stereo 10” in its stereo readme.)
Since we’re using openSuSE on Quadro-based workstations, this was an eagerly awaited feature.
Hopefully, we’ll see them soon in the standard repos for YOU!
The 195 driver is the only one that works with my Nividia 105m card on my laptop, under pretty much any distro. But I’d prefer to install it through the repos even though I have already successfully installed it on another machine the ‘hard way’. Does anyone have any idea when it will reach the openSuse repos, considering it’s officially the certified linux 64bit driver?
If you would look in the README section of the driver, the Appendix A, you would see your card supported now, where it was not in previous official releases. Better save the link provided by the OP, that’s the place where the beta drivers appear on the web. Sometimes days before announcement.
Not really sure what you’re trying to say! I know my card is supported by the 195 driver - I’ve already used it. My question was if anyone knew when it would arrive in the opensuse Nvidia repo. And the 195.36.15 isn’t a beta driver anymore - it’s certified and that’s why I’m wondering when it will appear in the repo. I guess you don’t know, but that’s ok. Does anyone else?
The driver RPMs hosted in this location are entirely built, maintained and supported by Novell/SUSE.
NVIDIA hosts them as a courtesy to Novell, however all problems and support requests related to
these RPMs should be reported to Novell via their bug tracking system: http://bugzilla.novell.com
so I think nvidia is just providing the location, not the content.

If you want to contact the package maintainer directly, have a look into the changelog of the package.
Well, as it was pretty clear who would be the person packaging those RPMs at Novell/SuSE, I did a little searching in OBS.
There are no packages being published from that project I found with the drivers (of course not), it seems to be a testing ground only, but there are specs and buildlogs for 195.36.15.
So either the maintainer has not yet decided to get them uploaded to the nvidia site or nvidia has not published them although they already have them.
