Not knowing what to do about the fact that there was no gfxG03 packages in the 15.2 repo I chose not to do anything and just leave the nVidia packages as it. That resulted, when I rebooted, and got to the point where the KDE login prompt normally appears, in that all I got was a big fat cursor arrow that I could move around, but nothing more. No login prompt, no desktop, nada. No error messages showed up while I watched the output from all the system startup steps. Other than buying a newer nVidia graphics card,
Don't. Whatever happens, don't. At worst, buy a new ATI/AMD card. Seriously.
VERY misguided information

Absolutely not. I stand by it, with the many that recommended me to do it. And very happy of having done it. As a last recourse. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
