'''Note: Incompatible ~~Packages~~'''

'''Note: Incompatible packages'''

Some packages modify the contents of <code>/var</code> or <code>/srv</code> in their RPM <code>%post</code> scripts. These packages are incompatible. If you find such a package, file a bug report.

Line 176:

* Kernel modules that are unsigned or signed with a key that is either known as untrusted or cannot be verified against the system's trusted key data base will be blocked.

It is possible to generate a custom certificate, ~~enrol~~ it into the system's Machine Owner Key (MOK) data base, and sign locally compiled kernel modules with this certificate's key. Modules signed in this manner will neither be blocked nor cause warnings. See https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:UEFI.

Since this also affects NVIDIA graphics drivers, we addressed this in our official packages for openSUSE. However, you need to manually enroll a new MOK key after installation to make the new packages work. For instructions how to install the drivers and enroll the MOK key, see https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers#Secureboot.
