when i tried to install and load nvidia like this :
> zyyper -vv sa ftp://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/10.2
> zypper -vv install x11-video-nvidia nvidia-gfx-kmp-default
> rcxdm restart

my  X server did not start and this is what I got when i
tried to use sax2 to configue it using nvidia , supposedly the nvidia
module is unable to detect an nvidia device :
right now I reconfigured it using sax2 -m 0=nv
