Description Anssi Hannula 2013-03-02 00:44:36 CET 
As seen in bug #8773, currently the harddrake service may switch e.g. from "nvidia304" to "nvidia304".

The logic needs to be checked so that it can only switch to free drivers, never to other proprietary drivers.
Comment 1 Thierry Vignaud 2014-01-13 19:18:01 CET 
Yes it should (when eg some cards are no more supported by nvidia-current but by some new legacy driver)

Comment 2 Marja Van Waes 2016-04-26 12:01:59 CEST 
This bug report hasn't seen any action since before Mga4 release. Is it still valid in current cauldron (or, for traditional installer: with the 6dev1 snapshot, or for live isos with Mga5)?
