Hi,

Not directly relevant, but right after posting that message, I looked again at the YaST Additional Package Repositories page (http://en.opensuse.org/Package_Repositories) and noticed that now there are ATI driver packages for 11.1.
To quote our Homeric Hero: Woo-Hoo!
Alas, premature and irrational exuberance. I installed this driver and now have no 3D at all. And while sysinfo:/ shows this: Display Info Vendor: ATI Technologies Inc Model: ATI RADEON 9600 Series (RV350/RV360 4152) Driver: Unknown flg_glxgears and glxgears yield this: % fgl_glxgears Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString) Serial number of failed request: 14 Current serial number in output stream: 14 % glxgears X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString) Serial number of failed request: 14 Current serial number in output stream: 14 Stellarium and Celestia now hang at start-up and have to be killed.
