I got yast to get the nvidia repos then search for nvidia. install nvidia-gfx-G01-kmp-default yast throws up x11-video-nvidiaG01 as a dependency on some boxes I have on the lan and some not. Check it anyway and accept. alt ctrl f1 and Come to runlevel 3. Copy your old (eg backed up 10.2?) /etc/X11/xorg.conf back to /etc/X11 Back to x It's a mess but it worked for me. And I'm a girl!
