I can probably figure (a) out in time, but I'm a little stuck with (b). I'm using the Nvidia drivers, they worked fine on 42.2.
Suggestions on how to proceed with (b) much welcome.
I have an nvidia 9800GTX, and the same thing happened in my DVD upgrade last week. I had switched the nvidia repo to 42.3 and enabled it. Logging on with a different display manager, I discovered that YaST had not upgraded the packages consistently, and had actually switched 2 of the 5 to the 04 driver (my card uses the 03). My admittedly simplistic solution was to deinstall all the packages which cleanly reverted the system to nouveau. X under KDE Plasma then worked fine. I reinstalled the packages from the repository and all was well. Btw, I had similar problems due to my also keeping several build service repo's enabled (after switching them to 42.3 of course). With these, YaST actually pulled in newer versions of OSS packages from those repo's instead of from the OSS repo. Made quite a mess which was a royal PITA to repair. I'll be returning to my old practice of disabling all 3rd-party repo's before upgrade. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
