How to fix flickering in openSuse 15.6 with Gnome + Wayland system?

Add some boot options from Yast2 > Bootloader

... nvidia_drm.modeset=1

Then add new file /etc/modprobe.d/50-nvidia.conf and add line:

options nvidia NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=1

image

Use nvidia_drm.modeset=1:

  • For graphical improvements (Wayland, X11).
  • To enhance display management (e.g., higher framebuffer resolution).

Use NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=1:

  • When running compute workloads (e.g., TensorFlow with CUDA).
  • When using a newer GPU that requires firmware blobs.

Both options are complementary but serve distinct purposes—one for display handling and the other for GPU functionality. You can enable both if your use case demands it.
