Hi Jostber.  Ok, while your trying to nail down having the card module load 
automatically you might also send off this stuff to SuSE support.  The reason 
I say this is because it's and issue with a GeForce"3"!!! and they will need 
to know about it.  Being a newbie myself I can't remember exactly, but I seem 
to remember something about entering an "alias" line in the modules.conf 
file.  I check into it and see what I can find and get back :)

Cheers, Curtis
