Last time I updated with sudo zypper dup, it forgot all about my gpu and had to uninstall the Nvidia drivers it forced me to install through the update, and the reinstall the G07 drivers that fits my 3050 card.
Is there a more proper way of doing this in OpenSUSE for a newbie? Would be very helpful if Myrlyn or something else was made for this, so if you wound up with a wrong driver after a major update, you could just use myrlyn (or something else) to autodetect and install the right driver (and also force it to run on your machine for all applications).


What is that?
I’m not familiar as I don’t use zypper, however this might help:
