  Install it as a 5800.

    Okay,  Redhat 9.0 attempts to install with this video card,  but =
once hardware detection is done,  the video goes out of synch range and =
the monitor shuts off.  SuSE 8.1 Pro  will install and boot,  however,  =
there is no selection for this card in yast, and none of the other =
GeForce selections will work.  Anyone know if there is a module or =
something that will get this card up and running?  It works great in =
Windows,  but I rather have it work great in Linux too. =20


    Also I see SuSE 8.2 Pro has listed the 5800 FX as supported,  but =
the 5200 FX is not listed, and I would hate to upgrade only to find out =
that the 5200 won't work, and be back at square one.


    Any suggestions, ideas, thoughts???
