this combination of suse and geforce2 is just a huge nightmare, I find it quite upsetting that there is so little feedback on the subject.
I got it to work quite well, using some information from the (German) support database and some toying with Sax2. Rough description: - Install SuSE 7.0 (don't forget to install nv_glx!), get 640x480 graphics. - Install patches (nv_glx and nvdriver). - Go to a textbased console. - Type "switch2xf86-4" (SuSE 7.0 is installed with X 3.3.6 by default!) - Start Sax2. Use "sax2 -m nvidia" or "sax2 -m nv" or "sax2 -m vga" to get it to run. - Remove the card that it displays, and add another. Configure the chipset to be an "nvidia" (NOT "nv"). - Set all other settings as appropriate. This should give enough hints to get it to work. If not, mail your exact problem and logfiles. end -- Jurjen Oskam * carnivore! * http://www.stupendous.org/ for PGP key assassinate nuclear iraq clinton kill bomb USA eta ira cia fbi nsa kill president wall street ruin economy disrupt phonenetwork atomic bomb sarin nerve gas bin laden military -*- DVD Decryption at www.stupendous.org -*- -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
