Hello, In the Message; Subject : Re: nVidia: build error with kernel 6.6.1 Message-ID : <42ee4c61-c016-411e-8e1e-fad2e1a1fcc0@arcor.de> Date & Time: Tue, 21 Nov 2023 11:37:52 +0100 [BV] == Bjoern Voigt via openSUSE Users <users@lists.opensuse.org> has written: [...] BV> I think, it's not a good idea to use the driver from BV> https://download.nvidia.com/ if you usually use the RPM Nvidia BV> driver.

There is no such thing as /usr/src/kernel-modules/nvidia-545.29.02-default. At the very least, you should understand what compiling a video driver is all about.
