The problem is that the first time I switched to the proprietary driver, my gnome desktop drove me nuts: windows "wobbled" when I moved them. I thought the display was using a terribly slow refresh or redraw speed; perhaps I had been had with my shiny big new display. I fought the problem for an hour or two. Suddenly I hit ctrl-alt-right to change to another workspace and I saw "the" cube rotating... all was clear. Suse guys have enabled compiz by default, but it is inactive till you put a capable driver in.
In KDE4 the compositing thing is very toned down in comparison - eg no wobbly windows. Plus, disabling compositing is super easy with an Alt+Shift+F12. (there must be something similar in Gnome.. or have the Gnome devs decided that that too is too confusing and removed it?) I have tried using the nv driver, but.. overall it simply doesn't work well enough for me.. i hate having to re-enable the proprietary driver every time I want to do something extra... so it's always enabled/in use on my system.
