Hi group and thanks in advance for your help -
Here's my goal. I want to be able to close the laptop lid and have ALL display go the DVI output, and that's just not happening. Below are the steps I've taken...
Since this is my card: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G92 [GeForce GTX 285M] (rev a2)....
I installed this Nvidia software: zypper install x11-video-nvidiaG02
Ran the Nvidia settings manager, applied it and saved it as directed, and then rebooted.
I see no changes. Even when I go to the desktop settings manager and tell it to turn off the laptop display, it gets ignored and apps open on the display that's been turned off and I have start dragging stuff around. Silly.
Thoughts welcome, and thanks again.

Hmmm ... Here's my adapter (9th gen. vs. your 10th gen.): 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G98 [GeForce 9300M GS] (rev a1) Here's what I have installed: x11-video-nvidiaG03-319.32-15.1.x86_64 nvidia-computeG03-319.32-15.1.x86_64 nvidia-gfxG03-kmp-desktop-319.32_k3.7.10_1.1-15.1.x86_64 I seem to recall the most recent time around having a more difficult, or less 'automagical' nNvidia driver installation experience. Previous installations included accurate hardware detection and proper driver selection. I think I had to intervene and manually install these packages. Could be fluke on this system but it couldn't hurt for you to see if the later modules are more cooperative. hth & regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
