You are better getting the drivers direct from NVidia.
I'm currently using the 190-42 version. The downloaded file is called NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-190.42-pkg2.run.
This is exactly the version what is provided as RPM. So this won't help. You file a bugreport via linux-bugs@nvidia.com.

Hello,
I have a newly installed opensuse 11.2 x86_64. I installed the nvidia-gfx02-kmp-desktop package after installing the system. Otherwise I did not install anything special. If I use the nv module, X displays ok, but with a lower resolution. Though I set the resolution to 1600x1200 using sax2, nv tell, that it cannot switch to a resolution higher than the one set in BIOS.
Most likely you're using the DVI output which is limited to the resolutions provided by the BIOS of the graphics card when using the nv driver.
Does anybody know, how to get either the nvidia driver running or how to either tell BIOS to use a higher resolution or to tell nv to ignore BIOS resolution?
You can't. :-( Best regards, Stefan Public Key available ------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Dirsch (Res. & Dev.)
