Yes i know it's a tired and used problem and i've searched the net on = this one but the answers i receive just don't seem to work so here goes.
A couple of comments/questions: 1. The reference to the "nv" driver in the Device section of you XF86Config file definitely needs to be changed to "nvidia". You may also want to try running "switch2nvidia" -- I did not have to do this when I installed my nvidia drivers, but some have mentioned success after running this script. 2. You mentioned you are running the latest nvidia drivers -- are these the 2960 drivers? If so, you may want to consider stepping back a generation to the 2880 drivers. I had several problems with the 2960 drivers but quake3 runs great for me with the 2880 drivers. 3. How did you install the drivers? Did you download and install the nvidia_kernel and nvidia_glx rpms designated for SuSE and install them in that order? Or did you download the sources for the kernel and glx drivers and do rpm --rebuild? If you had older nvidia drivers, did you uninstall them first per the nvidia README? 4. Do you get the nvidia splash screen when you boot the computer or restart the X server? 5. What does 3DDiag tell you? The answers to some of these questions may help in determining you problem.
