Why on earth isn't SUSE maintaining a list of all the devices attached, performing a check each time it boots, and asking the user if they'd like to configure any new devices that have been added?
Well, the list of known devices is kept below /var/lib/hardware/udi/
Didn't know about that.
If a changed graphics card isn't properly detected, I'd consider this a bug.
So would I. However, since I don't usually change my graphics cards once they're installed, I've not yet had this problem occur and so can't exactly file a bug report on it.
The system should either run SaX directly or use "yast2 x11" to do the configuration.
Given that this black/blank screen problem keeps being asked about[0], I'm assuming that this isn't actually happening.
