Hi,
My son's system fails to get into a graphical environment after the zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change issued yesterday (to TW 20230917, kernel 6.5.3.-1-default). Trying to issue startx, the Xorg.0.login his home environment says "Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module¨. then you do not have the nvidia pkg for the 6.5 kernel installed. if G04, I don't believe there is one "yet".
There is indeed no nvidia-glG05 or -4 package, says zypper info.
As said, too bad that one doesn't get warned for this omission when issuing the usual zypper dup. Now we have a pretty useless system.
no, just boot a 6.4 kernel fwiw: this is a well known situation and has been for many years now.
Is something wrong with this snapshot?
(We thought about doing a snapper rollback, but snapper says snapper is not configured - isn't that done automagically when installing TW? It is configured in my own system, and I can't remember having done that myself.) are you utilizing btrfs? if not, sanpper rollback is not available.
fwiw: my G04 system also cannot utilize the 6.5 kernel.
