After recent zypper dup snapshot 20251002 something is broken (may be latest plymouth update or something) and screen resolution in plymouth and then in X11 is 640x480, while is should be 4K. Tried to revert to 20251001 - no luck, following instructions do not work:
packages tumbleweed status still shows version 2025102 as installed. Outdated instruction? What are exact steps?
How to fix resolution? Can’t send any files or output from suffered PC because of very low resolution for now.

Do you have Nvidia drivers?
Yes, and according to inxi -nGa NVIDIA driver: N/A.

Then show the basics
zypper se -si nvidia
inxi -GSaz
Not sure how to pass it to another PC and send here? The only DE I was able to load is IceWM.
Save the output to a text file and transfer to another PC via a memory stick.

Or alternatively use the builtin susepaste function…(should be installed by default):
zypper lr -d | susepaste -e "131040" -n "akontsevich" -t "repolist" -f "bash"
inxi -GSaz | susepaste -e "131040" -n "akontsevich" -t "inxi" -f "bash"
Post the two URLs which you recieve as command output.

You have the wrong kmp package for the Longterm kernel installed, but you use the default kernel.
Install the correct package:
sudo zypper in -f nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default
Answer the solver questions which will remove nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-longterm.
Alternatively you can use Myrlyn to switch the packages.
Yep, that appeared strange for me too, I have not installed nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-longterm myself, so I tried to change this via console yast with no luck, same for zypper - error is:
> sudo zypper in -f nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default

Can you show the output of
zypper se -si kernel
Also via the susepaste function if needed.
zypper se -si kernel | susepaste -e "131040" -n "akontsevich" -t "kernel" -f "bash"

Ok, good. You have a working kernel-default including kernel-default-devel.
Please try to remove the longterm packages:
sudo zypper rm kernel-devel-longterm kernel-longterm
I have a feeling that you are hit by a known bug (not Nvidia related).
removed, however still can’t install sudo zypper in -f nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default -same error: nothing provides ksym…

Ok, one last try. Rebuild the package database
sudo rpm --rebuilddb
Afterwards try again to install the kmp.
If it still don’t work a bugreport is needed.
Old ones (which might be related):
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1248983
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1246561
No luck - same error. Is it possible to install some previous nvidia driver version?

The issue is not Nvidia related. There is something with the kernel.
The output of this comment and the actual output of zypper se -si kernel is needed for the bugreport.
I noticed the nvidia-persistence service crashing before i realized i had dup’ed into a newer kernel 6.17? , i reverted to last snapshot using 6.16.xx , system booted fine, i locked the 6.16.xx kernel on boot loader and then dup’ed, dup went fine, so as long a i stick to 6.16.xx kernel all is well
