I told him to buy an nVidia card.... and he bought an ATI :-( I've never seen an ATI work right... sigh..
Well ... I also had problems with nvidia cards.. but I agree that "we" like the nvidia drivers best :) Check this link "http://en.opensuse.org/ATI_Driver_HOWTO". Anyway, let me tell you how I've done it. 1. Installed kernel sources and development stuff (gcc, etc.); 2. I unzip /proc/config.gz to the kernel dir sources : /usr/src/linux-2.6.16.13-4 (seams that only suse stores the running kernel config file in the /proc dir); 3. Run the run-kernel service to config the kernel sources; 4. Run the ATI file that you download. Watch if there are some switches that apply to your machine; 5. Finally.... run sax2 -r -l -m 0=fglrx As you can notice, I went for a more "simple" installation and got it running. Let's hope the same for you. Lívio
