So, which proprietary driver can I use - I want to show her the compositing fun and games in KDE 4 :)
The one I tried before says it's the "NVIDIA graphics kernel module for GeForce 6xxx and newer GPUs". I thought that applied to me. (7600 > 6xxx)
In oS 11.2 you just add the nvidia repository in Yast, and then run YOU. It will download and install the appropiate driver automatically.
Yes, and it suggests the same nvidia driver again (190), but I'm hesitant to try again, given the earlier difficulties, which happened when I ran nvidia- xconfig. If it's not broken, don't fix it, as they say.
I wondered if anyone was using a different driver.

Hi Bob, I went back home and checked the settings. On my laptop (7300 Go), Opensuse 11.2, I have the following package installed: - nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-default (190.53_2.6.31.5_0.1-8.1) - x11-video-nvidiaG02 (190.53-9.1) and it works great. Be sure to check that the kmp package match your kernel version (default/pae/desktop). On the desktop, I have a 7600 GT with the same package installed. I did nothing to setup X on these computer after I installed OS 11.2. Not even a nvidia-xconfig (but for the laptop I upgraded using zypper dup, so the previous setup might have been used).
