I had thought I had an older graphics card in my system that wouldn't support Desktop Effects. But I discovered with glee that I indeed had a Radeon 9200 which is on the support list in the wiki.
So I proceeded to do the one-click install of the ATI proprietary driver. But nothing changed. Sax2 still saw the old driver and wouldn't let me change to the new driver.
Going into Yast2 > Hardware > Hardware Information > Display, I see that the new driver is listed as (secondary.)
How do I make this driver primary?

Okay, maybe that wasn't the best thing to do. I rebooted my box and now I no longer have a graphical login and I get display errors when I run sax2. hwinfo still lists the new driver as a secondary. Thank goodness I discovered w3m the other day and can still get online to email you guys. :-) Should I just rpm -e the new ATI driver that was installed to revert back to the original state or do I need to do something else as well? I'd like to see if changing the driver to primary would fix things before I revert back to original state. Might as well make lemons when life gives you lemonade... (oh wait, did I botch that one up?) Help is greatly appreciated in this momentary minor crisis.
