I made one of the biggest mistakes - I changed old and progressively dying NVidia for Asus ATI Radeon HD 4670. This makes up my life.
I never expected that Radeon is so hardly installed.
I tried that:
ATI - openSUSE
and that:
No luck with Radeon HD 4870 and fglrx - Page 2 - openSUSE Forums for installation and troubleshouting.
I tried the original ATI driver and Catalyst => the command "sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx" gives black screen and locks up the rig. The driver from one of the SuSE repositories after installation and "sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx" affords funny parti-colored screen,but doesnt freeze the machine.
I tried many times to play around - in one case the driver installed and the X started, but the fglrx module was not loaded.
Now I'm running VESA driver, and the fglrx module is loaded:
------------------------
lsmod | grep fglrx
fglrx 2447968 0
