I can't reproduce this. Quadro FX 580 is no longer supported by G04 and G05. Only by G03 0x0659 Quadro FX 580 And this ID is not in Supplements of G04 packages for openSUSE 15.2. Indeed we no longer support G03 driver package series since this legacy driver is no longer supported by NVIDIA. Also it includes support for NVIDIA GPUs from 2008 and older. So uninstalling the G03 driver was the right thing.

After upgrading to "15.2" yast claimed that the "G04" drivers would "update" the "G03" drivers, so I installed them.

I don't get this. G03 and G04 driver packages even conflict! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hmm. I can't reproduce this. Quadro FX 580 is no longer supported by G04 and G05. Only by G03

Actually you confirmed the problem: There is no "G03" for Leap 15.2, so effectively the support for those cards trough Nvidia has ended.(In reply to

With the 15.1 repository the only action I could do was deleting the packages. Wit hthe 15.2 repository deleting the G03 automatically selected the G04 packages. That's what I called "upgrading". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

G04 packages don't provide/obsolete G03 packages, so there must be some other package(s) requiring/recommending/suggesting them on your system. Could you still figure out? But you would need to install them temporarily first. Then run rpm -qa --requires <G04 packagename> rpm -qa --recommends <G04 packagename> rpm -qa --suggests <G04 packagename> Let me know about your results. Then remove G04 packages again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
