OpenSuse i386 on AMD64 X2. Problems installing drivers for graphic & audio cards


Hello guys.

I've installed OpenSuse 10.2 i386 on my computer.

i have AMD64 Athlon X2 processor and Gigabyte M61PM-S2 mainboard.

My problem is that i can't make the drivers for the graphic and audio card (which are integrated cards) work. I need the i386 version of OpenSuse because i have some very important software which is not designed for 64bit yet.

When i had the 86_64 version of OpenSuse installed all the drivers worked after i installed them...but now i dont know what to do. I've tried everything i know, but i am kind of new to Linux.

Pls help!
Thanks

For all I know it should be possible to use 32 bit software on 64 bit Suse as well. It has some applications that allow using it as if were at 32 bit OS.

As for the sound / graphics drivers, I don't know what is going wrong. Which drivers are we talking about?
