Question openSuSE 11.0 and Nvidia Geforce 9200m Gs

Hi yall,

I have been doing the steps that I found out in the following link
NVIDIA - openSUSE without success.

I used the 1-click install for "Geforce 6 and newer".

It seems that doesn't work for my Nvidia card.

Any suggestions/ideas/comments ...

The main purpose is install and use compiz !!!

Thanks in advance,

I prefer manual install, get the driver from here
Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

But I can't see why the repo should not work. You are probably missing something. Did you try runing
Code:
sax2 -r
from a su terminal
Or configure in Yast - Hardware - Monitor
