7800x3d and 5070 ti. Assembled, started fine, installed 16, only 1024 x60 desktop. It says that’s the only resolution and refresh my tv supports. That’s wrong. Its old but it ain’t that old. It supports 1080p x60. I assumed it was a driver issue so I did “zypper install openSUSE-repos-Leap-NVIDIA”, then “cp /usr/etc/transactional-update.conf /etc/transactional-update.conf” like it says in the nvidia wiki but it said it could not stat, that the file did not exist, so I used Myrlyn to install the driver because now it showed up there when it did not before. It still says that 1024 x60 is the only resolution/refresh my tv supports. “nomodeset” does not exist in my grub.
Been a while. Glad to still be here. Thought I might have to leave, but you guys help get my new pc up and running I guess I won’t.
URL to the wiki page?
I have never done such things, only install the necessary Nvidia packages, add the key to mok and all was running.
Here are my Nvidia packages:

libva-nvidia-driver is not necessary, I build it by my own.
You can compare it, but you should also post:
mokutil --sb-state
SDB:NVIDIA drivers - openSUSE Wiki .
add the key to mok ?
scott@localhost:~> mokutil --sb-state
SecureBoot disabled
There are now libnvida entries in myrlyn but none specificly libnvida-nvidia-driver
I could run “zypper se -si nvidia” Like you did but I don’t know how to put it in the scroll able box like you did.
Don’t tell something, post it.

@Scott_S There was a kernel update to 6.12.0-160000.7.1 you probably running that and maybe it didn’t rebuild the kmp? If you force the re-install of nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default it should sort it out… and accept the mok key as well after reboot…
It’s still the same. What is a mok key?
It’s not asking about that.
@Scott_S please show the output from inxi -GSaz The MOK key is for secure boot, the blue screen on a reboot…

@Scott_S so system is not updated (or if it is your not booting to the latest kernel), please run zypper -vvv up reboot the system then run zypper in -f nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default reboot and should be back to normal for the Nvidia GPU. Also switch to Wayland…
Likewise, I’d disable the AMD device if you can, if not for sure switch to the Nvidia GPU for Vulkan…

OK. I will do these thing but first tell me:
How do I switch to Wayland. how do I disable said AMD device or switch to the Nvidia GPU foir Vulkan

I’m sorry for being so ignorant. It was God’s will.
@Scott_S For wayland, that’s at the login screen to select the type (I don’t use Plasma)?
Maybe look in the system BIOS for GPU settings?
To use Nvidia for Vulkan create a file /etc/environment and in that file add;
## Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti for vulkan default
MESA_VK_DEVICE_SELECT="10de:2c05"
Save and reboot, check the output from inxi -Gxxz
@malcolmlewis
Does he needs the open-kmp?
@Sauerland it’s not up to date… I’m running the closed one here… Quadro T400

Ok I ran zypper -vvv up and wound up in text mode with no gui. So I went to bios and found it was set to use cpu integrated gfx. Changed that, reinstalled system ( I didn’t know how to fix no gui) and found was still at 1024. Installed nvidia drivers and still at 1024.

Wayland is the same except that the mouse acts like refresh is slower even though it says 60.
Do you still want me to create a file for Nvidia Vulkan?
@Scott_S the fix was to force the re-install of the nvidia driver… don’t need a desktop for that, just log at the tty as root user…
Can you show the output from inxi -GSaz again…
