It would appear that someone at Nvidia/openSUSE realised that the latest driver release was broken. The drivers in the repository have been reverted to a previous version. My main desktop is operational again with these drivers, although with an rpm database that is missing many installed packages. The box that I had already upgraded to openSUSE 13.1 is now running the open source Nouveau driver.

Earlier this week, openSUSE released new driver packages for Nvidia GPUs. These new drivers are causing massive instability on my main desktop. Old packages aren’t available, so I’m rather stuck at the moment. Oh well, having several computers is neat sometimes.

I’ve started using an Android app for updating this blog. Well, the app is rather neat, but so is the web interface. The mobile app is however more suited for use with mobile devices. I do prefer the desktop experience.
Today is Independence Day in Finland. I do find it quite bizarre that people celebrate being slaves in a tax farm. Oh well, humans are not exactly rational beings.
