I tried the RPMs from the nvidia repo (for 12.3) and I would get high CPU usage (80%+) while starting/playing L4D2. In fact, that was just starting the game. The game was unplayable as it would could not get past the menu (joining a game would freeze). Also, as soon as I started the game, and before the menu loaded, the CPU temps would climb above 65C and stay there until I force killed it. I tried other versions from other repos (some from in home:/), but the same thing. In the end, I just downloaded the .run from nvidia's site and installed it manually. No issues with CPU usage or temperatures. The .run does complain that it cannot build the CUDA support/driver. However, since AFAIK I don't use CUDA I just used "--no-unified-memory' (as per its log file instructs) to get around the error. Just thought I would just share my experience in case others see the same issues using the nvidia RPMs. My system: i7-3770 16 GB RAM Zotac GT 230, 2GB openSUSE 12.3 KDE 4.12.1 Kernel 3.12.7-2.g78b11e9-desktop Cheers, Alvin On 19/01/14 10:42, Robert Klein wrote:
