just to check their done properly press <ctrl-alt-backspace> to kill
your x server (logout first if you wish), then cd to
/usr/share/doc/nvidia as root. once there do a ls and there should be
a package called NVIDIA-<crazystuff>.run, execute it with sh, and the
installer should pop up. Just follow the instructions then go
"/etc/init.d/xdm start" and that'll bring x back up. Now you gotta go
to the nvidia website and make the changes to your XF86Config file
laid out in the readme for a linux install. If you don't have/can't
find the .run package then just download it of the nvidia site and
follow above instructions using it. If you get really stuck mail me
back or check out the guide somewhere in the suse portal.

I have SuSE 9.0 and couldn't find any drivers later than 8.0. I don't even know if this could be the problem. If I have incorrect drivers please point me to a site where the latest OpenGL drivers are located.
It is available through YaST Online Update. Start YOU, and in the list of available updates scroll down until you find the nvidia entry, mark it for installation, run the "update" and you should be good to go
I have tried renaming a few of the libGL* drivers in various directories starting at /usr/lib but nothing seems to help.
RPM doesn't care about what is on your hard drive, only what is in your rpm database, so renaming files is a futile exercise.
I just tried the YaST Online Update and I still can't run Quake3. It gives me the missing GLX errors even after I tried to install GLX again. I get the same error.
Any more ideas would be greatly appreciated.
