I have the same problem. I added the nvidia repo by selecting it in yast. It installed. I see that /etc/X11/xorg.conf had the driver changed from nv to nvidia (no X until I changed back to nv - I always keep a copy of xorg.conf when fiddling here). However, none of the kernel drivers were made or loaded. Even after a reboot. I see a few programs (nvidia-bug-report.sh nvidia-settings nvidia-xconfig). I don't think I saw the install script that I am used to using. I usually install the nvidia driver from the command line. I thought I would try the YAST method in 10.3. I still want this to work so it keeps up-to-date when I (via Yast or smart) update the kernel. Otherwise. 10.3 seems like a keeper. When I sort out a few compile issues with our product (v4l2 and MSVC++ via CrossOver Office), I think we will start testing for moving from 10,0 to 10.3. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
