I reinstalled from the DVD and all the network problems are solved. However running zypper dup didn’t install the nvidia G06 drivers, so I selected the packages from the non-free repo but the nvidia drivers aren’t loading. Here’s a screenshot of the packages that are installed:
Please show
inxi -GSaz
Did you reboot after installation of the drivers?
Maybe some other can tell, what the rootflags=subvolume=@/.snapshot means.
If this means you are starting from a snapshot, revert it to a running system by
snapper rollback xxxx
I don’t know what that means either but I rebooted and made sure that I booted from (Default). Same result.
Hi @pilotgi , One idea is uninstall all the nvidia then don’t reboot.
Reinstall it again once more then this time reboot if it will make a difference.
Another is if it’s throwing the same error as shown in your image, do
dracut -f --regenerate-all --vebose
See if there’s error regarding the GPU. If none reboot and see if it will work.
Another thing is manually do
modprobe nvidia
This command got me:
pilot@localhost:~> sudo modprobe nvidia
[sudo] password for root:
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for root:
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert ‘nvidia’: Key was rejected by service
This was after I deleted and reinstalled nvidia G06 drivers, and rebooted, then ran the dracut command.
Hi, Did you run the modprobe command in gui?
Are you on a wayland session? If so try doing it in init 3.
Or it could be you are in a secure boot. If so temporarily disable secure boot from the bios before modprobing.
Quick search from the forums found this. Looks like related to your problem.

I can’t help you with that, here secure boot is disabled.
There is no option to switch to Wayland.
I did a reinstall. I opened Myrlyn before I installed the G06 drivers and was prompted to import the nvidia key. Now when I use the modprobe command I get this:
pilot@localhost:~> sudo modprobe nvidia
[sudo] password for root:
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for root:
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found in directory /usr/lib/modules/6.17.8-1-default
I tried rebooting with secure boot disabled but nothing changed.
Edit: Now nvidia settings shows the driver is installed but I still can’t start a wayland session.

You’re getting there.
Did you add the optionnvidia-drm.modeset=1 in your kernel parameters?
I am assuming you are using KDE, I don’t have it, but I heard you may need to install the package libnividia-egl-wayland also.
I am using wayland in xfce with nvidia gpu and it is working nicely here.
I deleted sddm-Qt6 and replaced it with sddm. When I logged out I was finally given the option to choose Plasma Wayland, but when I checked nvidia settings and fastfetch it still said I was running X server.
libnvidia-egl-wayland is already installed. I added the nomodeset=1 line to kernel parameters but that didn’t help. The sddm screen isn’t switching me to Wayland.
Is this something I need to file a bug about?
@pilotgi it’s just nomodeset
Changing this kernel parameter still doesn’t allow me to switch to a Wayland session. How are you doing it?
