================ Lee, for the past 3 days that's what I've been doing. sax2 -l -m 0=nv over and over but it never worked. I still got the same error message and never got sax2 to run. Did not matter which slot the video card was in. Did no matter which PCI video card I used. Same error. :o(
I did this from the screen where it says the system is going to load SuSE, I typed "3" and pressed enter. Did the command above and it failed.
Check the messages on the list -- you'll see at least a dozen, maybe 18 all about my attempts to get sax running other than through KDE.

Ok, Gil, so you've ran sax2 -l -m 0=nv numerous times without success. now have you tried just sax2 -r or sax2 -l alone? Have you moved, renamed or deleted graphics config files to see if any were getting in way of you setting your graphics cards? PCI graphics cards are not rocket science, so there has to be a simple explanation to the trouble you are having. If it's not working, there must be something getting in the way of it not doing so. Have you tried the SuSE Eval disc? That too is a diagnostic cd such as Knoppix, only newer stuff to work with. regards, Lee
