I have followed the instructions on this site using YAST. It looks like the packages are installed yet the driver still comes up as unknown and when I drag windows it's still choppy as hell.
http://www.nvidia.com/object/l...ay_ia32_100.14.11.html
I've even downloaded the driver and tried installing it the way they say using the SH command. But it ends up saying something about not being able to find a kernal interface. It then can't find one to download. Then it can't find a compiler fails and exits
and insight would be great.
BTW I have an Asus 7600GS
here is the copied event log it said to take a look at

-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you li
ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f
rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: Yes)
-> No matching precompiled kernel interface was found on the NVIDIA ftp site;
this means that the installer will need to compile a kernel interface for
your kernel.
