Hi,

I've got Suse 9.3 on an AMD 64 bit cpu and I'm trying to get the ATI
Xpress 200 graphic card to work. I've downloaded the driver from ATI
(fglrx64_6_8_0-8.13.4-1.x86_64.rpm). When trying to install it from
Yast, Yast just quits without letting me know if it is installed or not.
Installing from console "rpm -ivh fglrx64..." it tells me that the
driver is installed. I cannot find the card in SaX so I'm completely
lost by now. Nor can Suse find my monitor, Proview 900P (19 inch).

Anyone had any luck with this card?` If so would you mind sharing the
information how you got the driver to work like "step by step for dummies"?

Cheers
