安装完suse 11后硬件都已经驱动起来，但是3D加速和图形特效无法启用。

下面是nvidia网站的提示安装步骤：

要下载和安装驱动程序，请按照以下步骤执行:

步骤 1:查看NVIDIA软件许可。

您需要接受此许可之后才能下载文件。

步骤 2: 下载驱动程序文件
下载 - NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-100.14.23-pkg2.run

SuSE用户：请在下载驱动程序之前，先阅读SuSE NVIDIA Installer HOWTO。

步骤 3: 安装
输入"sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-100.14.23-pkg2.run"以安装驱动程序。NVIDIA现在提供了一个实用程序来协助您配置X配置文件。请参阅自述文件的第三章或运行'man nvidia-xconfig'以了解使用详情。在自述文件中也可以很容易地找到编辑X配置文件的说明。

在suse的howto中提示：

openSUSE 11.0-IA32

It is recommended to use YaST for installation of the NVIDIA driver. There are several reasons for this. First, it's
simple. Second, and this is the most important one, you won't need to recompile the nvidia kernel module after a kernel update.

Update your Kernel via YOU (YaST Online Update). Use

YaST -> Software -> Software Repositories -> Add

Protocol: HTTP
Server Name: : download.nvidia.com
Directory on Server: /opensuse/11.0

to add the NVIDIA http server as additional installation source.
Now use

YaST -> Software -> Software Management

to install the NVIDIA driver. The appropriate NVIDIA packages will be autoselected, if your card is supported. These are either

a) x11-video-nvidia + nvidia-gfx-kmp-(kernel_flavor)

or

b) x11-video-nvidiaG01 + nvidia-gfxG01-kmp-(kernel_flavor)

If no additional packages are autoselected, your card is not supported by the driver (RPMs) at the moment.

Use "sax2 -r" for X.Org configuration.

People who aren't afraid of recompiling the nvidia kernel module or even reinstalling the nvidia driver each time the kernel has been
updated and want or need to use the latest and greatest nvidia driver can use the following steps 1-3. The others should use the
instructions above using YaST and skip the steps below.

1) Kernel sources must be installed and configured. Usually this means installing the 'kernel-source', 'make' and 'gcc' packages with YaST2.

2) Use the nvidia installer for 173.14.09.

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg1.run -q

3) Configure X.Org with

sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia (0 is a digit, not a letter!)

NOTE: There is no need to try to enable 3D support. It's already
enabled, when the nvidia driver is running.

IMPORTANT: You need to recompile and install the nvidia kernel module
after each kernel update.

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg1.run -K
