Hi all,
I am having some trouble with driver installation/configuration for GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile/Intel HD Graphics 530 cards. While installing Leap 15.0, I opted to not install the nouveau driver, since I knew that I’d be installing the nvidiaG05 driver.
After the fresh install, this is what my hwinfo looks like:

My display resolution is still limited to 800x600, and it does not look like the nvidia driver is active after install. If someone has any ideas to debug this, I would be greatly appreciative!
I’ve tried to install the nvidiaG05 driver with yast and the openSuSe easy way install instructions, but there is no difference and the driver is still not active.
Since the laptop has the two graphics cards, I thought that I needed to install the bumblebee driver first, but that also did not work.
Look forward to fixing this.
Thanks,
Fernando
