Hello all,

On a new laptop, I installed first Suse 8.2 Pro from the DVD. This worked fine.
Next I installed NVIDIA, following the instructionsheet on http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/nvidia-installer-HOWTO.html
when doing the Xfree86 configuration with "sax2 -m 0=nvidia" I got an errormessage saying the video-card wasn't recognized.

The situation now is:
- I can boot into runlevel 3 (f.i. using failsafe)
- I can reach runlevel 5, but KDE doesn't start.
- The DVD/CD drive is not found. So I cannot boot from the CD.
- I can start yast in textmode
- I can ping IP-adresses

I would like to start all over, installing SuSe 8.2

My question:
- Can I undo the nvidia installation?
- Can I mount the DVD/CD drive (doesn't work trough yast)

Thanks,
Hans Rasch
