I use a ATI 9200SE, too. But I wasn't able to activate 3D acceleration with this card with SuSe x86_64. In meantime, I deleted the SuSe partition and will try it later again.
Well, enabling the 3D support was no problem for me. Using the ATI drivers does give some extra performance but... then DVI output will not work with them. But with Xorg it all works. (ok I did not succeed using the composite output). 1 Major reason for buying this card is the fact that it is fanless. Combine this with: a sub 30dB psu (which automatic fan control) a fanless mobo a big Zallman 7000Cu cpu throtteling and lm_sensor's fancontrol a silent HD (IBM deskstar in my case) You end up with a whisper quite desktop system. When idle the cpu fan is even switched off at 42C and below. At full load the Zallman does can get noisier, but it is still more silent then a standard cpu cooler. BB, Arjen
