Failed video on new install of suse 6.4

[Mark Berkwitt]

I understand the problem is my new video card. Now according to Barland's 
websit (below), SuSE Linux is supported 6.3 and higher. If this is true all I 
need do is download the new SuSE dist and use that. It probably will 
accommodate my Matrox G450. Any feedback?

Supported Linux Distributions: 

Red Hat® Linux 6.2 
Mandrake? 7.2 
Caldera Systems® OpenLinux? 2.3 
SuSE® Linux 6.3 or higher 
TurboLinux® 6.0
