[opensuse] How to change video driver?

Hi,

I'm still getting frequent, intermittent hangs which I believe is due to a
conflict between the kernel 2.6.34.7-0.3-desktop and the nvidia video driver
256.53-16.1.

I'd like to try switching to the opensource nv/nouveau driver, but I'm not
sure how to go about it. The xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau 0.0.15 is
installed, according to yast.

Any suggestions, please?

Bob
