[protois at ensea.fr: NVIDIA and Privilege Separation]

[Gert Doering]

Hi,

I don't... but I can verify that sshd with PrivSep works on a SuSE 8.0
system with the SuSE NVIDIA drivers and the SuSE openssh packages.

(The packages seem to have been compiled on 2.2, and claim that
Compression + PrivSep is not supported, but otherwise, it works).
