in a first attempt on new opensuse 11.3 it seems to me
that nouveau behaves similar to proprietary nvidia driver - this means for me nogo for
realtime audio and fw-card, due to interrupt issues (Lenovo R61: Yenta and Nvidia share
one interrupt). Switching to nv eliminates these constraints.
If nv is subject to be removed in future releases then I will continue to work with my
excellent running opensuse 11.2 (plus selfbuilt rt-kernel) till the end of my Laptop
(which is not that far cause it's a really hard working machine *lol*).

Hello Susanne,
Interrupt issues could be solved with the rtirq-init script
(
http://www.rncbc.org/jack/#rtirq). I use it on my notebook where the
Firewire controller shares an interrupt with a gazillion other devices
(amongst others a nVidia GPU) and it works well with the proprietary
nVidia driver.
Best,
Jeremy
