Would be nice to have ftp://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/ updated to 177.80 too...
Why wait? As I stated in the "offtopic" list, the driver was made available by nVidia on 7 October (and today is 20 October, my time). Heck of a long time for openSUSE to come up with an upgrade. In any case, isn't one of the redeeming features of Linux distros. is the ability to "do your own thing" without having to wait for "fixes" from "The Company"? Are we becoming too dependent, like the MS et alia brain-dead users, so that we cannot install the latest piece of software without having to be totally reliant on "The Company" to provide us with the necessary new file? Download the latest nVidia file from nVidia and compile it against the latest kernel. Be BRAVE!
