Ok lets recap, you have adjusted your xorg and now your monitor works? If so let's get 3d working. Add the nvidia repository to yast: yast2 -> Software -> Community Repositories and install the nvidia-gfxG01 driver for your kernel. Manually adjust xorg.conf (nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf) again to change the video driver from vesa to nvidia.And reboot (may be necessary to load the nvidia module) or restart X.

I have an Insignia, BestBuy red headed step child, monitor. I found the information for the monitor and tried to input it in, but Sax2/Yast2 do not like the information and dies during the video test, with complaints. I do have the "Xorg.99.log" file that was generated by Yast2 when it failed to run its test, if that would assist in correcting this problem and the next part of my problem.
Try manually adjusting you xorg.conf:
# nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Look for this section and adjust it for your monitors config:
Section "Monitor" Option "CalcAlgorithm" "XServerPool" DisplaySize 360 270 HorizSync 30-92 Identifier "Monitor[0]" ModelName "PHILIPS 109S4" Option "DPMS" VendorName "PHL" VertRefresh 43-160 UseModes "Modes[0]" EndSection
Also look for this section and change Driver to "vesa"
Section "Device" BoardName "GeForce 7800 GS AGP" BusID "1:0:0" Driver "nvidia" Identifier "Device[0]" VendorName "NVidia" EndSection
When your montior works we look into your gfx card.
I also have no 3D for my Nvidia 8600 GT card even though I have installed the drivers found from the OpenSuSE site, the "nvidia.ymp, found at http://en.opensuse.org/Nvidia.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Okay, did that. Tried the test in Yast2/Sax2 and it still dies, but as long as I have a windowed environment I feel okay, ;-) Until I can get it all working correctly then I will feel awesome. One step at a time.
