The overall Xorg server failing to start was observed in 260.19.44, 280.13, and the 285.03 Beta. Apparently there is ABI breakage between the new Xorg packages and Nvidia proprietary "blah.run" drivers from the Nvidia web site. -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
