Novell and Ximian In a change of heart, Novell has ceased distributing proprietary software modules such as 3D video drivers that plug into the Linux kernel. The change came with Novell's Suse Linux Enterprise Server 10, released in July. With the move, Novell is aligning itself with the Free Software Foundation, which shuns proprietary software in general but in particular loathes proprietary modules that run as a component of the open-source Linux kernel.

Ya know Thom, you and Eugenia really need to allow your posts to be moderated, if you're going to insist on posting inflammatory comments on every article. I post things that are not exactly P.C. all the time, but at least I have the nerve to handle the consequences of my own actions.
