You do have, Fred. Just not the type/format that you had. It has been called the *hard* way, but is only a download and a commandline execution of a script which requires several yes or no answers to questions. Really difficult.
Maybe a better answer, nvidia is not part of openSUSE, but a convenience that (iiuc) Novell provided in collusion with nVidia.
I have a feeling that Fred is looking for something which can be automatically done on each of the computers he works on. For me, with just the 2-3 computers to look after, downloading a copy of the nVidia driver from the nVidia site is not a problem, but to Fred I suspect doing so, in order to be able to install and compile the driver on (?)>3 computers, would be a pain.
