I want to get rid of this ATI card and go to Geforce 6600. Is there anything that I need to know or should do before venturing down this road. I did not get much info from sir google :).
Thank you
1. Swap the card. 2. On the boot screen, press F3 (Options) and type "3" for boot parameters. This is going to boot you in runlevel 3 3. login as root 4. uninstall the ati driver, if you had installed any 5. follow the instructions here to install the nvidia driver: <http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/nvidia-installer-HOWTO.html>
Why not go to the trouble of backing up a copy of the xorg config file first? It could make life easier in case one needs to swap the old card back in.
