Big News!!!!!!

I just installed suse 10.1 on a computer of mine that has a Radeon 7500 PCI video card..... at the last step of the setup were it shows you uour hardware setup I noticed that the Hardware Acceleration was set to disabled. Just to see what would happen I switched it to enabled. IT WORKED!!! now I haven't done any strenus testing with it yet, but I'll post my results when I have them. But at this point it would appear that this is teh way to go for all those with older ATI cards.....

Nice. I have heard the situation with ATI is getting better.
