Grub2 cannot load latest two kernel updates

@ricloz2

I tried nouveau, but pulled it due to bugs. Ever since, the journal has shown nouveau errors.

Tried, pulled, but still using? I can’t grok this.
My GF108 is a little different, only one obvious error:

Were NVidia proprietary drivers ever installed on this exact 15.6 installation? If yes, could it be there is some residual from them still in place blocking nouveau from properly functioning, such as blocking load of nvc1_fuc084?

Hi All
Just an observation, has @ricloz2 just been booting into a read-only snapshot, hence updates being discarded?

[ricloz2]

I only boot into read-only snapshot long enough to ‘sudo snapper rollback’. Thereafter I reboot into a standard r/w configuration.

@malcolmlewis

has @ricloz2 just been booting into a read-only snapshot

It looks that way, though we don’t really have enough information to know that.

[ricloz2]

I don’t recall installing NVidia drivers at any time since before LEAP-15.1, which was a clean install. Since 15.1, I upgraded rather than doing clean installs.
FYI, here’s what Yast thinks is installed. See anything odd?
For nouveau:

… and for nvidia:

I have less than those:

# rpm -qa | grep -iE 'veau|nvidia'
libdrm_nouveau2-2.4.118-150600.1.4.x86_64
Mesa-dri-nouveau-23.3.4-150600.83.3.1.x86_64
