As usual. Without any config and logfiles nobody can help you. Even not NVIDIA itself. Attach the results after running nvidia-bug-report.sh. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Can confirm behavior on my own system as well. My system uses Optimus and should not have been rendered inoperable. I've been monitoring facebook and Google+ page and many users are reporting a broken X after installing NVidia or Bumblebee.
Today I've basically disabled NVDIA driver and libs, when a Intel GPU can be detected in %post of the NVIDIA packages. Packages need to be updated until this change becomes effective. Seems more and more Optimus arrive in the market at the moment. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

AFAIK driver version should be 343.22 (at least these are what you get on manual download or when using the packages from the X11:Bumblebee repo.
This bug report is about the G02 driver (i.e. 304.xx) from the nvidia repo, and not related to Bumblebee at all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Btw, a similar problem has been reported here as well: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/502113-openSUSE-13-2-X-server-fail...
Apparently startx gives this error message: X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx64.so: undefined symbol: LoadExtension
I'm not sure, but the 304.121 in the repo just might not work with Xorg 1.16.1 included in 13.2.
At least the changelog for version 304.123 says: Added support for X.org xserver ABI 18 (xorg-server 1.16). http://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/77033/en-us
So maybe it would be enough to update the packages to the latest driver version...
Makes sense. I'll work on this G02 driver update ASAP. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

When I had installed the driver before, it looks like package management is having trouble discerning which drivers it needs to install. If I recall correctly it wants to install several together. I can look to reproduce if necessary. That's totally unrelated to this bug report either, I'd say. If you can reproduce something like that, please open a new bug report.
If you mean that the G02 and G03 packages are installed automatically at the same time, this has been mentioned in different bug report(s) already, e.g.: http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=802624#c29 It only happened under very specific circumstances (you had to manually remove the driver before e.g.) Changes in the package management's behaviour in 13.2 (i.e. no SoftLocks any more) should prevent that from happening. But installing different versions of the driver at the same time should not be possible at all in 13.2 anyway, as the package management checks for file conflicts now. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Done. Updated G02 driver RPMs will be available shortly. Check for G02 version number 304.123. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
