[opensuse] resolution in runlevel 3, weird startup, flash in firefox, ...

Hi List,

I've finally decided to try to figure out some of the problems I'm having :-)

I've opensuse 10.3 running on thinkpad t61, with compiz and all the updates. I
have NVidia graphics card, and drivers are installed following the wiki. Now
when I change to runlevel 3 (I guess) with Ctrl + F3 or something else, (or
while booting) the screen looks stretched. I remember it used to be perfect,
but after re-intsalling the system, it feels like installing NVidia
drivers "didn't affect" that part.

Another thing which really annoys me, is that when I boot up, bunch of icons
which should be right next to the clock, appear on the taskbar as opened
windows. So what I see is basically, the same icons in separate windows
(KNetwork Manager, Updater, KMix...) opened on the desktop and with the
windows on the taskbar (I guess I screwed explaining how it looks like), I
have to logout and log back for them to get back where they should be. Does
anybody had anything similiar?

And also, this is a long time process, flash in firefox is really
inconsistent, it works for some sites (for YouTube for example), but for
others it doesn't work, showing only white frame (and most of the times it's
like that). I have to manually copy the link to Konqueror. I have adblock
installed for firefox, but I tried to disable it and try again, which didn't
help :-(

I have also some problems with sound, first thing is that the buttons on the
laptop for sound control doesn't work, and if I click on Kmix it shows
headphones on the top of the slider, and slider is just not chaning the
sound. I tried to change somwhow so that it doesn't show the headphones on
the top, thinking that that might be the reason, but couldn't find how...

Sorry for the mess above, and thanks for any help!

Sergey
