OK Update. I installed 11.2 from the kde live cd on a dell gx260. I have
Internet and kde4. I am 4 hours into the install and cannot change the screen
resolution beyond 800x600 on a 1440x900 flat screen, (there seems to be no
option in Yast anymore to be able to do this) I cannot play videos and my
(given old) quickcam express doesn't work. kmail was easy. Next I must
install
the packman repository or find the opensuse one click install for the codecs
or mplayer or WHY. I now have a home computer running Linux on a single
computer. I never thought I'd get this far.

if you have nvidia graphics go to http://en.opensuse.org/Nvidia (do
not use the easy way, do it the hard way because that is easier in the
long run (otherwise you get a black screen every time the kernel is
updated)

ATI graphics? go to http://en.opensuse.org/ATI

neither of those, try to find Personal Settings or Configure Desktop
in the menu system and see if you can't find a screen resolution
setting gizmo somewhere there..
