Trouble Installing NVidia Drivers

English Hardware

So I’ve made progress by disabling Nouveau](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjuhtzEn_7wAhUTEFkFHR4DDSsQFjAAegQIBhAD&url=https%3A%2F%2Fnouveau.freedesktop.org%2F&usg=AOvVaw1vuZKiGoX8YdWwUWay5doa) drivers in order to install my nvidia drivers, however now i’m having trouble getting past this next issue:

Neither the ‘/usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h’ nor the
‘/usr/src/linux/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h’ kernel header file
exists. The most likely reason for this is that the kernel source files in
‘/usr/src/linux’ have not been configured.

I’m running openSUSE Tumbleweed on a laptop with a dedicated graphics card Nvidia Geforce GTX 1650 Max-Q

I’ve tried installing kernel-devel packages and i’ve searched all over the web, this is day 3 of working on this, i could use some help. Thanks guys.

I got farther, it now attempts to create the nvidia kernel, but now i get this in my logs:

Not sure why you are using driver 430.09, I think that with Tumbleweed and kernel 5.12.4 you should use 460.80 instead.
