Question help - no GUI after new graphics card


Hello! No internet on the linux box.

I put a new nvidia graphics card into my system, now when it boots up, I have no gui. (Before I was using onboard video.)

How do you check whether the installation of opensuse is 32 or 64 bit?
(This is needed to select the correct drivers.)

What is the step by step procedure for installing the drivers without a gui? (Assuming assuming the correct drivers were downloaded onto the desktop.)

Currently I have a text box asking if I want to get diagnostics.

No, I didn't! Maybe that can be done from the bios, prior to boot up.

I will check.
