Success!
The 64bit
drivers supplied by
SuSE worked. I followed the directions supplied by the associated README to the letter. My system is as follows:
SuSE 92. Pro/Windows XP
AMD Athalon 64 2800+MHz
512MB RAM
ATI Mobility
Radeon 9700 128MB
Uniwill 258KA0 based laptop
SuSE Mirror list
The i386 and x86_64 bit
drivers can be found in the following directory on your favorite mirror:
/suse/i386/suplementary/X/ATI/
Pick which verison of
SuSE you have and whether you want i386 or x86_64 and you're set.
Before installation of the
drivers I got about 440FPS with glxgears. After installation I got about 1590FPS.
Hope everyone will be able to get their graphics working as easily as I did.
