*** Bug 969764 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Relevant information: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/514015-no-login-prompt-after-last-Nvidia-update *Update* Good news. Meanwhile I can reproduce the issue. Bad news. After having a hard day investigating the issue yesterday I still could not to figure out the culprit. :-( Workround for now: - remove any nvidia RPMs via YaST, zypper or rpm, e.g. via "rpm -e $(rpm -qa|grep nvidia)" - rm -f /lib/modules/*-<kernel_flavor>/updates/nvidia*.ko - find /lib/modules/*-<kernel_flavor>/weak-updates -name "nvidia*.ko" -delete - reinstall nvidia packages via 'zypper inr' Ok. I believe I fixed the issue finally. It may happen that you need to restart the displaymanager afterwards (or just reboot the machine in case you don't know how to do this), but that should be enough. And IIRC this is no new issue (depends on the DM you're using). I'll push the fixes towards NVIDIA ASAP. Updates in the repo should be available in the next days. Repos for openSUSE 13.1, 13.2 and Leap 42.1 have been updated with fixed RPMs. (In reply to Stefan Dirsch from comment #4) > [...] It may happen that you need to > restart the displaymanager afterwards (or just reboot the machine in case > you don't know how to do this), but that should be enough.

Reason is that gdm hardcodes Xserver binary to /usr/bin/Xorg instead of using the proper symlink /usr/bin/X. No, I don't like gdm ... |
Created attachment 667924 [details] Xorg log Hi, after a system update (zypper up) something is broken with nvidia driver. Xorg does not start. Only fixed by removing nvdia driver ! So, fine with nvidia-355.* broken with nvidia 361.*
