[opensuse] How does X11 decide what graphics card you have?

Hi all,

I'm trying to get my X server to recognize my graphics card properly. If I ask the system for hardware info, it knows that it has an Intel 945GM graphics card installed. But SaX is convinced that it's a generic VESA card and refuses to run in any mode other than 1024x768.

This used to work (although the driver used to crash on mode change) in 10.1, I'm now running in 10.2rc1

Help, please! How do I tell X what device its really using so I can get hold of the cards features via Sax?

TIA
Simon
