Opensuse's SDB says Nvidia linux drivers work "flawlessly" with Leap and installation is "trivial". Well, it is not. First one has to install gcc, kernel-sources and kernel-devel, but it is not a big deal. But at the end of installation Nvidia tells you that it could not symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 and two other files because they exist. And it is right. I tried to delete them, but it still insists that those files exist. I went through the exercise on my Leap desktop machine, I don't recall any such issues. Maybe because I needed an older nvidia driver.
Your description "it could not symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 and two other files because they exist." doesn't sound correct - are you sure that's what it says?
Yes, those are the 3 messages one gets when installing the latest nVidia drivers. Simply ignore them and press "Continue with the installation".

In the meantime I also realized that the 3 messages refer to installing 32 stuff.
Umm, are you sure -- re the 32-bit stuff? There is a question asking if you want 32-bit module to be compiled but that's all. The 3 "Warning" msgs are about having the symlinks to the nvidia drivers already being present and these are the ones which I ignore and go ahead and complete the installation.
So I gave it another nad again, I badly failed. Perhaps I did something wrong, but have no idea what. Here is asystem, I can reach CLI with CTR-Alt-F1 and that is all, I mean neither nouveau, nor nvidia loads. Maybe yet another Leap install again? I tried Ubunti 15.10 but even the trial does not start. Debian and Mint have older kernels. So I am bit disappointed now
