Default 'six screen' after installing nvidia driver on openSUSE 11.1

Hello..
im having ASUS K501N with nvidia geforce G102M. Im using OpenSUSE 11.1 with the following kernel information:-
Quote:
gothu@linux-p6e8:~> uname -a
Linux linux-p6e8 2.6.27.29-0.1-default #1 SMP 2009-08-15 17:53:59 +0200 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
gothu@linux-p6e8:~> rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-pae-extra-2.6.27.7-9.1
kernel-debug-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-pae-base-2.6.27.7-9.1
kernel-default-base-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-syms-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-default-extra-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-pae-2.6.27.7-9.1
kernel-source-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-debug-extra-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-default-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-docs-2.6.3-3.13.46
linux-kernel-headers-2.6.27-2.28
kernel-debug-base-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
The nvidia driver has been installed successfully until I reach the su -c 'cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf' which gaves me the following error:-

Quote:
cp: missing destination file operand after `/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
Try `cp --help' for more information.
And when I continue the following command which is su -c 'sax2 -r -m0=nvidia' it pops up with a six screen on my monitor.i tried including the next code into the section "Screen": 'Option "ModeValidation" "NoTotalSizeCheck" ' but no difference. can anyone tell me whr I missed out?
