Sudo zypper dup - nvidia message below is printed thousands of timwa

During a sudo zypper dup the message below is printed thousands of times. I have terminal scrolling set at 10k lines and it scrolls off the screen. I do not think this is indicative of an error as the “szd” completes properly. Using nvidia proprietary drivers; perhaps it is an issue for them. My repo list follows.

Anyone else seeing this or only me? That info would help diagnosis.

This can safely be ignored. This message existed for a long, long. long time with the closed drivers. It is only a warning which does not and did never influence the correct installation of the driver. There was once a patch to surpress this informational messages, but this patch was reverted when there was the big issue with kernel 7.x.x and the new G07 drivers.

@hui, thanks for the info.

Getting all these messages makes review of the zypper installation info difficult.

Is the patch you mentioned to suppress these warnings in openSUSE code or nvidia code? I’d like to file a message somewhere to get the patch reinstalled.

thanks, tom kosvic

The patch wont get reenabled as it broke the driver.

I will disable the nvidia repo. I have a G06 grade graphics card. I don’t think nvidia updates affect or improve anything for my card anyway.

thanls, tom kosvic

The nvidia kmp has to rebuild for new kernels, so it won’t go away by disabling the repository…

Will deleting the nvidia repo service and also disabling the repo allow for just keeping the current G06 driver inperpetuity w/o rebuilding kernel module?

No, on a kernel update it has to rebuild, well you might get a cycle or two of kernels in weak-updates before it needs rebuilding.

ok, I’ll live with the multi-thousand warning messages.

No real harm.

thanks, tom kosvic
