If this has been posted already, then I missed it....SORRY! Earlier tonight, I added http://www2.ati.com/suse/11.2/ to the repositories on a client laptop I mentioned here about a week ago that has the ATI HD-3100 chipset. I installed the site that covers that series, rebooted into init 3, ran sax2, saved the new config., and then issued init 5. Acceleration and 3D now work! Thanks to whomever in the openSUSE community or Novel who got things moving at ATI!
Sadly that repo is very unlikely to cover the "legacy" ATI hardware like the x1200 I have. Annoying that they did the whole drop support for all cards thing. The open source driver is not good enough yet... I get loads of graphical artifacts on screen with my 1200 and the os driver. One question... why run sax2? Are you aware that sax2 is being phased out, replaced by xrandr and the associated GUI apps in Gnome/KDE4? In theory, all you should have to do is start the GUI Display config app. The old xorg.conf config thing is going away - you can still use it for custom configs that the X autodetect does no get quite right, but.. in most cases is unnecessary with 11.2 now.
