Install Suse 9.3 and Using an LCD


Okay, I just downloaded Suse 9.3 and couldn't wait to give it a spin. Booted the DVD, used the graphical installer without issue, and even installed a few updates. The only problem is that I can't get Suse 9.3 to display correctly on my LCD at 1280x1024 no matter what bit depth I use. It looks all garbled and is unuseable. How can I get this to work!?

LCD: BenQ FP937s
Video Card: BFG Tech 6800NU 128MB

PS: I downloaded the nVidia driver via the YOU tool and it seemed to install properly, but I stilll can't get this thing to work. Any help would be muchly appreciated! Thank!

Do you have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file on another install of linux that you know works? Try moving the SuSE one out of the way and copy the known good xorg.conf file into it's place
