Can you try with the latest version as rpm?
osc co X11:Drivers:Video nvidia-gfxG02 cd X11:Drivers:Video/nvidia-gfxG02
chmod +x fetch.sh
# Fetch the tarballs ./fetch
osc build nvidia-gfxG02.spec <copy output packages somewhere> osc build x11-video-nvidiaG02.spec <copy output packages somewhere>
cd somewhere createrepo .
zypper ar /somewhere nvidia
zypper dup --from nvidia
You can also build them with rpmbuild -bb after fetch if you have ~/.rpmmacros like this:
%topdir /space/packages %_builddir %{topdir}/build %_rpmdir %{topdir}/rpms %_sourcedir %(echo $PWD) %_specdir %(echo $PWD) %_srcrpmdir %{topdir}/rpms
That makes rpm find the sources and spec in current directory instead of /usr/src/packages
Thanks for reply, and sorry for not getting back sooner - I've been vacationing and traveling. I am not a developer and much of the above is over my head. I believe it will either be up to Nvidia to fix their drivers to be compatible with the newer Xorg releases, or prove that there is a regressive bug in Xorg and convince them to fix it there. I have submitted a bug report on this to Nvidia and I am sure they are aware of it. My purpose for posting here was just to get out some kind of heads-up to the 12.1 efforts so it doesn't come as a total surprise come release time. This is a thread on an Nvidia forum concerning the issue: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=165665 -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
