After switching from Tumbleweed to Slowroll, monitor not recognized

I switched my system from Tumbleweed to Slowroll, using instructions in Portal:Slowroll - openSUSE Wiki.

After reboot, my monitor is not recognized, System settings show the only monitor as None-1 (1024x768). No other resolutions shown available.

My card in NVidia.

Where can I begin troubleshooting this?

Did your default kernel change? Do you use NVidia’s proprietary drivers? If yes, you may need to reinstall, or install a different version.

What do sudo zypper lr -u and inxi -GSaz report?

I do not use NVidia proprietary drivers. My default kernels did change to their ‘Slowroll’ version.

BUT, I should note that I fixed the problem by removing everything related to NVIDIA that I have seen in zypper search, so I will close this item.

IF this should help anyone else, I ran the following (this feels like a hammer, but it worked for me):

zypper remove kernel-firmware-nvidia kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06 nvidia-libXNVCtrl nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-default openSUSE-repos-Slowroll-NVIDIA

The following 12 packages are going to be REMOVED:

For completeness, the commands you asked me to run:

localhost:~ #  zypper lr -u
Repository priorities in effect:                   (See 'zypper lr -P' for details)
      80 (raised priority)  :  1 repository

Always nice to see happiness from OOTB installation. :slight_smile: Please now mark the thread solved. Also, in future, whenever providing command output, please remember to use the PRE feature (</> icon above the input window) to enclose your paste. Same result is available by simply including ``` on a separate line above, and a separate line below, what you paste. This preserves the formatting of the command as it appeared in your terminal window, making it equally understandable to those of us here to try to help.

I will mark the thread solved. Sorry about the non-formatting issue. Next time I will make sure it is right and readable next time (```) (I wish I can edit my post to fix it, but I do not see a way).

And thanks for such quick help and follow up.
