Hi,
I just tried Mageia 2 beta 1 on a Intel DN2800MT board hoping that it
would have framebuffer support for the GMA 3600, but the attached
monitor goes into standby (no signal) as soon as the frame buffer gets
activated during boot.

As far as I understand there is frame buffer support in the 3.3 kernel
for the GMA 3600 so in theory it should work.

Are you aware of this issue or should I do a bug report?



Yes.

There is a bug with Cedar Trail that got fixed upstream a few days after
3.3-rc6 was released, so the fix is not in our current 
kernel-3.3.0-0.rc6.1.mga2, but it will be fixed in the next build.

Oce is the OPENCascade Community Edition.
Earlier versions are/were packaged by Mdv and Fedora, and recently Deb

It seems from OPENCascade's own license literature to be LGPL-like with
differences. (but rpmlint is not happy with that).
Fedora consider it non-free, but since all the source is available and
redistributable I don't know why, so ignore my comment on line 1 of the
spec.
There are links in the spec to license references.


See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458974
( notably the comment from #10 ). I would push this to non-free, because
that would be a problem for a company.


It also has a single tainted BuildRequire on pkgconfig(glw).

Well that's why we have plenty of time until rc, to stop working on

To play devils advocate (I would personally prefer to just use agetty!),
mingetty does support at least the second two as well.

See the latest initscripts+systemd package. This is exactly what I've
done! Great minds think alike I'd say! (tho' I'm using mingetty for now
- partly because I wanted to play with it - I do intend to use agetty
instead however)

I'm not sure how much of a space saving it is, as the mingetty package
is only 34k. But every little helps :)

And while it does use more memory, I'm not sure anyone would
particularly lose all that much sleep over it (I think my previous
argument was a little weak!) :D

Yeah, library provides are excluded on purpose in the proprietary driver
packages, to avoid any "unrelated" packages to depend on them.

Not sure if libcuda.so.1 should be an exception or not, it is again
quite a special case...

In any case, nvidia-cuda-toolkit already contains:
%define _requires_exceptions libcuda.so.1\\|python(abi)

My first guess would be that it doesn't work since it is in the middle
of the package definition, and it should be either moved to the
beginning of the .spec file or made %global. Alternatively something has
been broken in rpm-mageia-setup-build.
