Am I missing something or is there a problem with Nvidia drivers, 11.0 and 
*some" cards. Or is it a Yast/Sax2 problem?

I have installed 11.0 (clean install) in the 32 bit version on a machine 
running a GeForce 7300GT and everything went perfectly well (including dual 
screen setup).

I tried to install the x86_64 version on an AThlon X2 that has two GeForce 
7900GS (SLI) and never got a working screen. I tried again with the i386 
versions, same problem (but by copying the the xorg.conf file from 10.3 it 
did work in the end - I did not attempt a new 64bit install to test).

An upgrade from 10.3 to 11.0 on my T60p widescreen brought not only a working 
X, but I've got openGL support that was not working with 10.3 (ksquirrel and 
Google Earth work now).

Note that 10.3 x86_64 installed with no trouble on the SLI system, including 
3D Nvidia support. Given that the problem seems to be the xorg.conf file, not 
the Nvidia driver, is this a SuSE 11.0 "bug"?

If anyone has experience about that I'd like to share...

Thierry
