You may be unable to install NVIDIA Driver 295.20 with the kernel 3.3.x branch provided by the Tumbleweed repository or the Stable branch of the kernel repository. This is due to the sources not producing the right files in the right places. This causes the NVIDIA driver installer to report it cannot find source files to the kernel, even though they are installed.
