Just following up wanted to let everyone know that I finally took the
time out to install the new card. Was *very* easy to install, got the
nvidia drivers working with no big problems. However now I do have my
monitor telling me that the resolution is now set at 1280x768. While
system-config-display says my resolution is at 1680x1050. I haven't
figured out how to resolve that yet. and the bottom of my desktop is
now offscreen. But that's a small problem. I'll try to see if I can get
SuSE 10.1 install via Xen tonight and let you know what I think about
all the eye candy. (Installed it already on my wife's computer but it
has a intel graphics card and I don't think that will support Xgl).
