[opensuse-support] Leap-15.2 resolution drops on upgrade
![](https://seccdn.libravatar.org/avatar/78c592e6e354db3e4ae1f8c2dccc892f.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Last night I upgraded, using the nvidia driver but resolution dropped to 1440 or some other horror like that from 1920x1200. I did a forced reinstall of the driver but to no avail. The splashma hardware/monitor settings provide no options except what there is. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org

What exactly does this mean: YaST? Zypper up? Zypper dup? Some packagekit child? What kernel worked last? Can you still select to boot it from Grub and get the desired resolution?
using the nvidia driver
Again, it's unclear your meaning. What does inxi -SGa report?

An upgrade would be from one openSUSE version to another openSUSE version, like 15.1 to 15.2. Otherwise it is an update, not an upgrade. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)

My mistake, it WAS an _update_ with Yast. And it's possibly part of a multi-issue single-cause failure an other part of which is discussed on alt.os.linux 'major boot failure' where 'Carlos' too is already poking at it (NB. at the time I had no idea that the two were related, hence the split ticket)
Some of the evidence was destroyed but some may remain such as a /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old (thinking the prob solved I ran Yast/BootLoader for an update-grub on the TW partition which fixed the issue cited HERE on the Leap-15.2 partition as well.
I have upped a 50mb tarball of affected folders/files to https://tinyurl.com/yyxm8lk8
