The Nvidia Drivers don’t work with the new Kernel5.1, even using hard way doesn’t work, I got screwed because with the consecutive 5.1.2 update and the next day 5.1.3 it uninstalled the last 5.0 Kernel that worked, now I’m using generic mesa drivers with a resolution that’s not right … but acceptable
Hi
The 430.14 should work…
https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/
I’m not sure that they support my Nvidia Geforce 610, I try them anyway
Post Edid
Nothing to do tells me that my card does not support it and the installation does not even start
That’s why I recommend using
multiversion.kernels = oldest,latest,latest-1,running
in “/etc/zypp.conf”. Just insert “oldest,” in the list of the kernels to keep.
I do that in Tumbleweed. It keeps an older kernel around. Until recently, that was keeping a 4.20 kernel available, though I never used it. When the 5.1 kernel landed, I deleted the 4.20 kernel (with Yast and the “Versions” tab). That left a 5.0 kernel as the oldest. And that won’t go away until I manually remove it. However, 5.1 is working here (I don’t have a Nvidia card).
Hi
Ahh I tested a 640 here as well… (Also have a GT8800 running the 340.107 patched driver on 5.1.3)
So you need the 390.116 driver for a 610, plus needed patching to create a custom run file…
See the following for a patch link and how to apply the patch: [opensuse-factory] kernel 5.1.2 nv module problem - openSUSE Factory - openSUSE Mailing Lists
Putting a lock on the kernel is also generally a good option here until driver updates fix issue.
I see that:
https://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/tumbleweed/x86_64/
has been updated this afternoon.
Problem solved with today’s update, perfect
Hi
which patch did you use for this 340.107? I had no luck with those I found.
GeForce 8800 GTX, openSUSE Tumbleweed x86_64
Hi
Here you go;

Thanks a lot, but this did not work for me.

Hi
How was the patch applied?
I used (as my user) to patch;
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.107.run --apply-patch 340.107_5.1.patch
Install (as root user at multi-user level) via;
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.107-custom.run -aq
Ok, will try it that way. I did
patch -p0 -l --verbose < patchSUSE
in extracted .run directory without error…
Bingo, this did it! Thanks a lot, you made my week .
Hi
Just don’t panic if it stops working after an update… just boot to multi-user target and rebuild the driver, reboot and enjoy 
New trouble. Rebuilt for Kernel 5.1.15 and 5.1.16, Driver freezes boot at
... Starting X Display Manager... Starting Locale Service...
nvidia-xconfig did not change that.
Hi
So the driver rebuilt and installed ok? No errors in the /var/log/nvidia-installer.log?
All ok, no errors there.
Hi
The nouveau driver is still blacklisted? File should exist in /etc/modprobe.d/ if it exists, can you rebuild initrd as root user with the command mkinitrd.
Yes it is. Plus nomodeset in boot options. No success. Something wrong with default xorg.conf/nvidia-xconfig maybe?
