If this noovoo driver works so pefectly why then have I had to use "nomodeset" when installing Milestone #1 and #2, and then when booting into the install, otherwise I got nowhere with the install and then the first boot? In fact, I had to add "nomodeset" in menu.lst so as to be able to login without going thru hoops to do so (until I installed the proper nVidia driver)? And my video card is not something bought at an antique shop: it is a Geforce 7600 GT card and uses the latest nVidia 295.33 driver.
Yes, many people have to do that. People are asking every week in the forums about how they install openSUSE because they get a black screen. They think openSUSE is bad or something. Then somebody explain how to do the modeset trick and install Nvidia drivers, and things work for them. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
