I've had much success using the nVidia Linux driver because it just works. I've never had any luck using the old ATi linux drivers. Has anyone tested the newer driver? How was the install process? Painful or Painless?
Painless, completely: 1. Download the rpms. Install the fglrx rpm
What's the location of the rpm's? Thanks
2. delete the /usr/src/kernel-modules/fglrx directory 3. install the km_fglrx rpm 4. go into /usr/src/linux, do make cloneconfig and make prepare-all 5. cd into /usr/src/kernel-modules/fglrx and run make as discribed in the readme on SUSE's ftp site. 6. run sax2, don't bother with enabling 3d, it works in any case.
Yeah, the old ones were a bitch, but the current ones are easy
