That should work , unless there is something to do with an  issue with agp
support that I don't know about (mine is pci) also, if this is the first
time you
are setting up X you will want to check out the SuSE support data base
article on setting
the symbolic links to the x-server:
<A HREF="http://www.suse.de/Support/sdb_e/maddin_x_noserver.html";><A HREF="http://www.suse.de/Support/sdb_e/maddin_x_noserver.html</A">http://www.suse.de/Support/sdb_e/maddin_x_noserver.html</A</A>>  ( I wasted many
hours
on that one)
Hope this helps
Kristian
