You might consider upgrading to a new kernel... <from www.kernel.org>
The radeon modules are part of the kernel.
The radeon module is, but that's the 2D-only one (unless things have changed in the last couple of months); 3D acceleration is Mesa. If you want hardware 3D, I *think* you still have to go for the fglrx module (the FireGL modules, which also work for Radeons). When I finally got my 9700 Pro working in hardware mode, the glxgears went from 280 fps (Mesa) to 4100 fps (hardware) - so it *is* worth the effort if you want to do 3D stuff in SuSE. (There should also be a new release of the ATI modules at some point next week; 3.2.10, I think.) Gideon.
