NVidia support

Hello,
After I installed the final 11.1 the NVidia issue persists.
Using the video-ofonly boot option works but it seems when
I restart there is not a prompt to enter it again.
Where can I set this option - in a member so that I don't
need to enter it manually when booting?

I'll look into getting a NVidia driver for my G5 PowerMac,
any suggestions? assuming that I am not the only one who
selected openSuse as a Linux system.

YaST -> System -> Boot Loader -> Select relevant image -> Edit

Add the text to the "Optional Kernel Command Line Parameter", checking
also for conflicting existing elements.

My Macs are both G3 and ATI based so it doesn't affect me. However AIUI
this NVidia issue is not distro dependent...

Good luck
