extension GLX missing on display

To solve this you should use the official Drivers from Nvidia and from the OpenSuSE's Nvidia repo.

The easiest way is to go to this link and select the "GeForce 6 and GeForce 7". You are selecting GeForce 6 because of the output of lspci

Installing multiple Nvidia drivers can cause issues (I know from personal experience) so if the YUP suggests removing other drivers, go ahead and let YaST do that.

Once the install is completed, reboot, and you should see a new application installed called Nvidia Settings or something similar and that will allow you to work with your additional monitor.

    I have a computer with broken graphics here. It's running openSUSE 13.2 (x86_64). When a 3D application (paraview in this case) starts up it complains:

    The computer also has a second monitor attached, which is blank. I don't know if some update caused this.

    I'd include more info but the character count is limited, so please tell me what else you need to see, and what parts I can delete without making the question useless.

    What might be the cause of this and how can I fix it?

      NVIDIA: Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. looks like the relevant error; does dmesg give anything? What about sudo modprobe nvidia (or sudo modprobe nvidia-current)?

      dmesg | grep nvidia gives nothing, should I filter differently? modprobe commands give FATAL: Module nvidia_uvm not found. and FATAL: Module nvidia-current not found., respectively

      well, grep -i nvidia. But it sounds like you're missing half of your nvidia kernel modules. Maybe check that all the relevant packages are installed?

      Thank you. It appears you've now got enough info in the question for someone with openSUSE knowledge to tell you how to fix it—personally I'd guess reinstalling that uvm package might work, but I don't know openSUSE so you might want to wait.

      Did you install all of those drivers? What does lspci show (relevant to nvida)?

    I know that U&L.SE discourages posting links as answers; however, since this is a driver issue I feel that the best I can do is direct to the location and give general tips.
