6800 Gt?
I cannot get my 6800 GT to be recognized by SuSE
. It says I have a VESA Framebuffer graphics card, and not my 6800 GT.
??
Also, I used YOU to update the nVIDIA drivers, but that didnt seem to do anything.

download the nvidia driver
log out of X
log in as root
run installer program
edit x config file following directions provided by nvidia file
restart X
if the distro your using doesnt have a compiler and the kernel header files it wont work, I think you need the X development package too
