Hi all,
It used to be standard practice to have Nvidia rpms ready for the release of a new openSUSE distro.
Who missed the memo for openSUSE 11.3?
Cheers!
Roman The nvidia rpms provided have not worked reliably in the past in my experience. Downloading and manually installing nvidia driver is a better option.

Sadly, I need to confirm it. After, 11.1 I guess, was released, I installed fresh SUSE and decided to install RPMs as I used to before, but they didn't work. I had to download the driver tarball and compile on my own. Then it started working. I don't trust their packages.
Now I've migrated to ATI, but still have to compile on my own, as ATI fails to provide packages... It's not good to rely on hardware manufacturer...
Since ATI were taken over AMD, Linux support should have got better. Have you checked their website? An old HP with ATI chip worked well with ATI drivers. This does depend of course of the drivers are available for your particulae chip.
