There has been some chatter about this one SLE.  Apparently there is a
file in "/usr/share/doc/nvidia" to rerun the nvidia driver install which
needs to be done if there are significant kernel/xorg changes.

Just repeating,  I don't have any Nvidia hardware. I like my
crappy/commodify chipsets; I810 forever!
