Hello,

Just thought I'd share that the old (legacy) nvidia drivers/kernel modules (G04 version, see list below for more info) are building, loading, and working (for me) on Tumbleweed using the 6.7.* kernel series. So if you are still running legacy nvidia hardware and have locked your kernel into a version from the 5.9 series (because the 6.6.series were known not to work), you might give the latest version a try (6.7.2-1-default, as of when I wrote this).
