Having trouble with Radeon HD 4350 and 'radeon' driver - Xorg still trying to load fglrx

Hello,

 I had trouble with the Catlyst fglrx driver when I installed a Radeon 4350 card into my OpenSuse 11.3 64 bit machine, so I switched to the 'radeon' driver and have been using this fine since then.  Last night I did a 'zypper update' and rebooted and now Xorg won't start any more, complaining that it cannot find any fglrx cards.  'Xorg -configure' does the same thing.  Is there a way to blacklist a driver in Xorg or should I remove /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so ?

Thanks,

Todd

FYI, I removed all permissions from /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so :

% ls -l /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so
---------- 1 root root 14571473 2011-02-08 18:09 /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so

and now Xorg comes up OK.
