Ok thus if I understand correctly, I don't have the source for the kernel-rt? And therefor it is impossible load modules such as Nvidia?
For building external modules, please install the kernel-source and kernel-syms packages. That will do.
Hmm this is strange # zypper search kernel reveals more kernel-sources then yast2 does?! How can I fix this? And wat purpose does the kernel-syms package have (I didn't find the description very helpful). # zypper search kernel | package | kernel-rt | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-rt_debug | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-source | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-source | 2.6.22.9-0.4 | x86_64 | package | kernel-syms | 2.6.22.5-31 | x86_64 | package | kernel-syms | 2.6.22.9-0.4 | x86_64 # yast [Filterv] [Actionsv] ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────── │ │Name │Avail.

How does one generate a kernel headers package? Maybe I can help :)
We don't do separate header packages anymore, it's more trouble than it's worth. Please use kernel-source.
