openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240816-0 -> 20240819-0

When I do this update, I lose plasma desktop. I did it from both desktop and tty and after restarting both times it left me to log in only with TTY’s and no desktop environments. rolled back and all is well but am curious about this. feel like i messed something up somehow but i dont think i did either.

@deebido I normally use fbdev=1 not nvidia_drm.fbdev=0 for Nvidia. Alas, I’m not a Plasma user, but you have other desktop environments installed, do they work?

The inxi output looks fine driver wise…

If you update to the next snapshot, do you see Nvidia rebuilding for the 6.10.5 kernel, I suspect that may be the issue…

I would suggest adding at boot to the grub linuxefi line nomodeset which will give you a GUI, not optimal, but can check the nvidia driver is built or not…

I couldn’t get wayland to work on tumbleweed kde unless I had this typed in for kernel parameters.

but you have other desktop environments installed, do they work?

after i would do that update i would have only TTY to log into. i could not get back to any environments.

thank you for this information. appreciate

Are NVIDIA modules available for the new kernel?
