[SOLVED] Jockey driver management in Fedora?

penyuan · 12-07-2013, 06:28 AM

Hello,

Is there a way to install Jockey to help detect hardware and install drivers in Fedora? (I am running Fedora 19)

Or is there an equivalent that I can install in Fedora?

Thanks!

Google can find jockey packages at the "zhonghuaren.repo", for Fedora 19 :
http://download.opensuse.org/reposit...ren/Fedora_19/
{ jockey jockey-kde jockey-gtk }

Code:

[zhonghuaren-fc19]
name=Zhonghuaren-F19
baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/zhonghuaren/Fedora_19/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

The files uploaded by `Zhonghuaren' are here
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/
.. amongst a lot (5,940) of other Package Builders,
who build packages for a variety of Linux OS's,
and use the Suse site for storage.

So the link actually contains "5,000" different repositories,
probably mainly for Suse.
