NVIDIA module didn't get updated after installing a new kernel

English Install/Boot/Login

This problem occurs since a few weeks: After installing a new kernel (4.18.8-1-default right now), the NVIDIA module (nvidia-uvm-gfxG03-kmp-default-340) didn’t get updated/created for the new kernel so it couldn’t be loaded after reboot.

My “quick solution” was to remove and then reinstall the NVIDIA packages:

zypper remove nvidia-gfxG03-kmp-default nvidia-glG03 x11-video-nvidiaG03
zypper install nvidia-gfxG03-kmp-default nvidia-glG03 x11-video-nvidiaG03

Report a bug against Tw and these packages at bugzilla.opensuse.org

Oh, and, is

used to upgrade? If not, don’t report the bug, but don’t use other upgrade mechanisms on Tumbleweed, as per docs.

Yes, I’m always using

I will generate a bug report then.
