I had a working installation of opensuse 13.1 until last night's update. Since then the X server wont't start. If I run startx from the command line in superuser mode I get a message about a mismatch, where the nvidia driver component has version 304.121 while the nvidia kernel module has version 304.119. The message preceding the mismatch message indicates "Loading extension GLX". All the opensuse repos are for version 13.1. Anyone has any idea how to proceed from here?
Hi Alain, snip Relevant links here: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA
hth & regards,
Carl Thanks Carl,
In the end all I had to do was download the file NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.119.run.run from the NVIDIA web site and run it.
snip Thanks again,
a I had problems with x due to the most recent updates. I did "zypper up" and it complained of problems with the nvidia rpm's (from the suse repo). After the update, my desktop's resolution was completely messed up and I had huge icons. The system was no longer using the nvidia drivers. The yast package manager showed six nvidia rpms (some of which were not correct). I removed ALL of the nvidia rpms, rebooted the system and then the desktop resolution returned to normal. I then selected only the two appropriate drivers (g02) for my card, rebooted. After the second reboot the system was now using the drivers and the desktop was back to normal. First time anything like this happened to me. I only use the suse nvidia rpm's and never install with packages from the nvidia site. Gustav
