Hi,
I thought I’d give tumbleweed a try as a possible replacement for fedora and I ran into an issue that I thought I’d flag.
I tried to following https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers instructions, but at the end got a non-functioning desktop.
The problem appears to have been a change to drm framebuffer which requires it get an explicit include for 6.0.0-1 kernels: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/install-of-driver-515-65-01-failing-on-some-kernels/223430/10
Annoyingly the rpm build looks at first glace to have worked and it’s only after suspecting that something must have gone wrong and looking through the build logs that turned up an error.
