Thanks Curtis; The NV driver I have comes from and NV repos site. It boots up with the NV Boot Splash. But is not a built one by me. I will try to get one to boot because For about 15 or 20 years I have built every kernel including git kernels. However, I think openSuSE has made it not doable on the version I have. None of them boot using oldconfig or /proc/config.gz -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5...@comcast.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5...@arrl.net " VoIP via Skype:n5xwbg BMWMOA #:4146 Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.
