[CS-FSLUG] Suse 9.2 and 3d vid boards...

[N. Thompson]

I have a GeForce FX 5200, I don't know whether its affordable or not but it 
seems well enough supported, the only thing that doesn't work in Linux yet is 
the video input and thats only important if he plans to use it for video 
editing.

I've found in SUSE if I can't get 3d working I just need to go to the updates 
section and reinstall the fetchnvidia update, that will take care of 
installing the driver and running SaX2 will make setting up 3d support easy. 
The only thing I've noticed about SUSE is that I've had to install the driver 
more times then with other distributions but I can't explain why.
