openSUSE 11.3 x64 graphics card driver issue
I've a big question about openSUSE 11.3 x86-64 graphics card driver. How do I successfully install proprietary graphics card driver on openSUSE 11.3? :confused: My graphics card is NVIDIA GTS 250, and Compiz is working on my PC. But it's using "Nouveau" driver, now I want to install NVIDIA proprietary GTS 250 driver. I did gooogle many ways, and tried them for install driver many times many hours. I still can't successfully install it, including "blacklist nouveau", "rdblacklist=nouveau", "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.36.run -k $(uname -r)" ... blahlalala. :mad: This is madness! Do you have any solutions?

A wizard...
You didn't mention that you tried it this way? I believe that the installer displaces the nouveau driver as it installs Nvidia. http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_dr...C_11.2.2C_11.1 |

If you got the nvidia driver package from the nvidia website, you should also find installation instructions on the same page. If I remember correctly, there are instructions specific to opensuse.

The instructions...
If you download the driver from Nvidia, there is a README with instructions. http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree8...DME/index.html In addition, there are instructions about installing the Nvidia driver from the openSUSE repositories. http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/nvidia-...ler-HOWTO.html You still have not answered whether you have tried the automatic installation wizard I posted. According to the instructions, installing the driver from the repositories either using or not using the installation wizard does not require you first to disable the nouveau module |
