It will. Anway you can't install nvidia without the matching sources.
Try
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x86_64/kernel-rt-2.6.22.5-18.x86_64.rpm
with
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x86_64/kernel-source-2.6.22.5-18.x86_64.rpm
This is the kernel for the coming openSUSE-10.3 but it still works
under 10.2.
