The 7600 uses the G02 driver. The GO 7600 uses the older G01 driver.
I had this same sort of issue with my laptop. Go into yast, uninstall Nvidia driver G02, and install G01.
Thanks for the suggestion, but that driver did the same as the G02 driver. Looks like I'm stuck with the 'nv' driver. Oh, well :)
I have not followed the whole thread from the beginning, but I have a Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT card and I use the proprietary without any problems.

Thank you. It's good to know that others have got this working, but as I said earlier, I have tried this driver, and the G01 version without any success. I'm beginning to think that this machine is a bit special. It is made by Toshiba, and was sold as a full featured media centre, with HDTV, an onboard sound amplifier, and running a Toshiba'd version of Windows Media Centre.
