This is very strange: last night it worked fine, I made the updates everything fine.
Today when I turn it on it doesn't pass from the Nvidia logo, then I kill X
goto to text mode startx and it works for several minutes then it closes/crash X
and goes to the text mode, when I try to access My Computer KDE crashes,
I turn the Screen Saver off and it crashes.
Now I'm writing this not knowing when it will crash.

I using a NVIDIA 9600 a AMD 64 bit with SUSE 10.2

It's a KDE problem?
A X server problem?
The update screw the installation?

I need help.

Thank you in advance.

did you have a kernel update in all of this ? if so you will need to update the nvidia install to make sure it is compiled against the correct kernel

you installed the patches released a few days ago for the X Server, dont ya?

if so, then you need to re-install your NVIDIA driver coz those patches replace a few libGL files

microchip is right. though, even if it is a kernel update, u stilll have to do the same thing, reinstall. start the comp in safe-mode. install it from there.

No need to reboot into safe mode - 2 reboots is loooooooooong.

As you see gdm/kdm start, press ctrl+alt+F1. Login as root, do init 3 then rebuild the nvidia kernel module - you can then do what you do to reload that driver - ie: rmmod nvidia && modprobe nvidia && init 5 or whatever, or just reboot.
