It even does not work in Vista (starting with SP1).
Only way is to use Ready Driver Plus
Yes, I ran that once and my general feeling is that it's a very hacky
"solution".
Is there any likelihood of the GPLPV drivers getting signed with a "real"
certificate? The Microsoft documents on driver signing are a bit vague on
what is actually required but it doesn't seem as if the full WHQL testing
needs to be done, you only need an SPC certificate from a trusted CA. For
example Comodo are selling code signing certs for $179 for a year.
Could "anyone" then purchase one of these certificates and sign the GPLPV
drivers?
Hmm 179 Dollars would not be much, is it a one time purchase, or every
time you sign a driver?
Maybe I can arrange something.
Sincerly,
Klaus
