After installing Suse 9.3 on my ThinkPad X30 laptop with an Intel graphics adapter, I find that dmesg tells me that the 2.6.11.4-20a-default kernel is using the vesa frame buffer driver instead of intelfb. Does 9.3 always install the vesa frame buffer instead of an adapter-specific driver? Wouldn't the adapter-specific driver be better? Assuming that intelfb would be better, how do I make the change? YAST doesn't seem to know about either one. Any pointers would be appreciated.
