The package could not be found on the installation medium.

Martin, the firmware is provided by YOU, isn't it?

Comment 2 Martin Vidner 2005-08-09 14:28:55 UTC

At least on 9.3 no, it is on the media. But PDB says it has a commercial  
license. If this is openSUSE, it is missing from the media for licensing 
reasons I assume. 
Bettina, is this openSUSE?

Comment 3 Bettina Botter 2005-08-10 12:19:42 UTC

Actually I am not sure about open or not...it's the isos downloaded from nozzle.

Comment 4 Martin Vidner 2005-08-10 12:23:25 UTC

What is the name of the isos? If it contains OSS (Open Source Software), then  
it is openSUSE.

Ok, does that mean that we have to get the firmware from somwhere else? I can't
remember that I had to do this with the 9.3. As far as I remember it worked out
of the box.

Comment 6 Arvin Schnell 2005-08-16 14:16:32 UTC

So that is the openSUSE release.  The package is simply not on included in
openSUSE.
