For a few days, my system was telling me there is one update. However when I went to install it, it said that there were broken dependencies, and couldn’t install it.
Then yesterday I decided to do the update via the command line, where it found 50 or so updates to perform. After letting the system loose to do the updates, everything appeared normal.
Then I had to shut down the computer due to incoming thunderstorms.
When I went to power up this morning, all I get now is the initial splash screen, then the screen with the green lizard. It will get about 1/3 on the progress bar, and then display a black screen with the cursor.
I’ve done some reading of the forums here and tried a few things.
First, I’m able to get into ICEWM. From there I ran the command
\
zypper path
and generated this.

I tried option 1, which wanted to downgrade a bunch of other stuff.
Then I ran update and upgrade, and installed the 18 new patches.’
Reboot, and same problem.
Then I tried removing the nvidia drivers, ref, and reinstalling from the command line. no effect.
