Can anyone help?

If that part works for you, and the screen is normal. THen it's ok. I'd check the following as well, this is normally an indication it really works namely: direct rendering.

In the shell type:

Code:

glxinfo | grep direct

There should be a YES.

Also just do glxinfo and see what driver it's using.

Something like this:

Code:

OpenGL version string: 2.1.1 NVIDIA 100.14.09

Btw , how is your sound?

I could not get opensuse to work with the onboard sound card on my motherboard.
So I bought a sound card from Microcenter for 15 bucks. I re-installed opensuse (this may not be necessary, but I was having sooo many problems) and now my sound works perfectly.

Now I did get the onboard video to work, but not the new graphics card I bought.

By the way, puntjuh...
I tried the commands you mentioned and got exactly the results you mentioned.
I tried the Nvidia 7300LE video card again and it still fails.
The Onboard video is much better than before, however. So I have just a little more energy to get the 7300 card working. If you have any more suggestions (or anyone else?) I'd sure appreciate it.

I'm really liking OpenSuse, too.
