File conflicts occur when two packages try to install files of the same name but with different contents. If you continue, the conflicting files will be overwritten and you will lose previous content.
Continue? [yes/no] (no):

What is please best solution ?

Delete nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default before
or

I think it would be useful to know what happened and why in order to choose best solution.

some how you installed the nvidia G05 driver

i would uninstall it before installing the G06 driver

using zypper

G05 driver only is recommended. Is it please safe to use driver which is not recommended ?

There is nothing useful, it's a bug in the package.

If you read lists.opensuse.org, you should have read it.

nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-default is defectively packaged https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1207520
Do not let it install if you're not using a GPU that G06 supports. Run sudo zypper al nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-default before doing updates if you weren't using G06 already.

Thank you, it's solved now.
