I expected to someone else post a message about this but maybe I am alone with this problem? I had been running 10.3 with a GeForce 7300GT video card with great success. A few days ago the updater applet included updated nvidia drivers in the list of available updates.After the update compiz started acting weird. I tried to restart the xserver but could not get it to start. I reset the video with Yast. I tried re installing the one click nvidia drivers but if I run the commands to run Compiz the xserver would run. So after a lot of reading a looking around realizing I am in over my head in understanding this and thinking maybe there is some baggage causing trouble and I would be further ahead (at least time wise) to do a clean install since my home is on another partition. That done I was in the same boat unable to get the drivers working and with a slow desktop and unable to run a few programs without the 3D. I looked around the nvidia site and found drivers dated from Sept. To install them I found that had to install the source files for the kernel first. Now all is well again running on the I assume an older kernel. So I guess this message is a heads up to anyone about to pull the trigger on that particular update. When I a started to write it I had not got things working yet.But I am still wondering what the heck happened here. -- roger -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
