Re: [Vectorlinux-devel] GPL Issues surrounding Mepis and the can of worms he opened.

Teh solution would be to provide the drivers on disk.
but let the user actively do something to initiate a configuration utility
which would either give the user a list of instruction or do teh driver

from the thread i get the idea that bundling the driver "pre installed" is
the trouble here.
cheers
