If you have a black screen or a box in the middle of your screen, and you have a ati 200m after installing SuSE or doing a kernel update, then
1: goto tty1 -- CTRL + ALT + F1
2:login as root
3:kill xserver, by typing "rcxdm stop"
4:switch driver to radeon old, by typing "sax2 -r -m 0=radeonold"
5:sax2 will start, if it looks ok, then press save.
6:you should be returned to text mode, start X by typing "rcxdm start"
7:go back to tyy1 (see step 1) and type exit, its not i great idea to leave a root terminal active!)



MOD/Admins -- i couldent find a good way to put this on wiki, would be nice if you could do or tell me how to do.
