It seems Novell is running a bit behind when it comes to creating new NVIDIA packages for openSUSE 11.3. Maybe they are busy:-)
Anyway, using the NVIDIA installer is not a big deal. You only have to install some development packages and the kernel-sources and the NVIDIA installer will do the rest (as long as you are not running an active X-session). Just did it myself.
Erwin, Thanks, I know. I did it also for 11.3. I preferred rpm, since then it was automatically - new kernel and new nvidia driver. Today I picked up the upgrade of 11.1 kernel and forgotten to check that there is corresponding nvidia driver, so stayed with run-level 3. But as you said, not big deal. I've already re-built it.
