The nvidia packages for Leap are build against the first kernel of Leap, for Leap 15.5 that is kernel 5.14.21-150500.53.2. So they are working with all new kernels from the SLE Update Repo.
When you install kernel 6.8.8 from somewhere, the nvidia driver will not work anymore because the driver for Leap 15.5 is not using that kernel when building.
For kernel:stable:backports you need to deinstall the nvidia Packages and install the driver by Hand.

ok this was misleading then. but (current) kernel is still from official repo. nevertheless tried to reinstall the nvidia drivers from that regataos repo, and build fails in another way: # make[4]: *** [/usr/src/linux-6.8.8-lp155.9/scripts/Makefile.build:244:
You are not using the official kernel for Leap 15.5.
Leap 15.5 is using kernels from the 5.14 series, not 6.8
oh. how could I miss this. thought since zypper dup I were using the official kernel. But did zypper dup with all repositories (at least those available for the new distribution) enabled.... I tried to clean some things up (install glibc to official repo) and install of libzstd just failed (first thing yast sw_single tried to reinstall). I now have a completely broken system. nearly every command fails "/lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by /usr/lib64/libzstd.so.1)". i'll never do such zypper dup with all repos again... what do you suggest? boot to a snapshot? use the installer using netboot?
