It looks like sometimes folks post the Tumbleweed Monthly update, but its not consistent. You can find it here when it is published https://news.opensuse.org/, and feel free to post it here if you read it 👍

That is correct! Here are some helpful articles

1. More about zypper DUP: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Upgrade_Tumbleweed
2. Mention on how to disable KDE plasma updates, although you might want to more thoroughly google for this: https://en.opensuse.org/System_Updates

Also with Tumbleweed there is always the chance of hiccups when upgrading, given that it is bleeding edge. Make sure you know how to use Snapper, and its good to check the openSUSE Matrix channel and forums before upgrading just in case there are any issues; often issues are resolved quickly, so if you see folks discussing an issue just don’t update, and wait until the next safe snapshot is released!

Great! I assume that the issue was blacklisting the nouveau driver then. Glad to hear everything worked out, after initial setup I find Tumbleweed to be the most reliable experience with NVIDIA drivers.

Please note if you are new to Tumbleweed that you should always update with zypper dup, nothing else. This also means you should disable automatic updates in gnome (via packagekit) or KDE, as Tumbelweed is most reliable if the entire system “rolls” forward together to the next OS release. Not sure why they aren’t configured to be disabled by default, but that’s the way it is…

Install the correct “nvidia-compute-utils” package, and then try again. We need to know whether the gpu driver is properly installed, and nvidia-smi is the way to do that

What is the output of nvidia-smi?

Spent 4 hours on Sunday debugging “SW microcode error” iwlwifi crashes… eventually found some random shit on the Arch forums where you turn a bunch of shit off and it fixes it

This is bullshit lmao
