Plan C: in your situation, *I* would go back to the 15.1 kernel, install the sources, and compile my own kernel with the mkiss driver added. I can guide you with this one.
No need for the entire sources.
Plan C needs the entire sources, because the idea is to build a new kernel with the mkiss module included.
Your plan is a variation of plan B, proprietary Nvidia drivers the hard way, but with dkms.
I will wait for Marc to see if your plan works, and if not I'll explain the plan C in detail ;-)
kernel-default-devel is enough ( apart from the other deps from the 'hard way' What works: Install dkms Enable ( and start ) the dkms service through YaST's services manager Download the latest appropriate NVIDIA....run for your card Run the NVIDIA......run with --dkms option. It will trigger a rebuild of the nvidia kernel modules at a kernel update. On major kernel updates people have reported 1. To need an extra reboot 2. To need to download a newer NVIDIA...run from NVIDIA's site. If you rebuild the kernel from sources and use the existing config, you end up with the same kernel. Must say I haven't read the entire thread. That would have kept me busy for another day :D
I know, so I have to explain him how to clone the existing config, then how to modify the correct setting for what he needs, and how to make it all. Not trivial. (assuming the module builds and was not removed intentionally) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
