I have a video card that announces itself as:
  G96 [GeForce 9400 GT]
When installing the latest openSuSE/Debian/Red Hat, I get the
black screen of death upon booting into run level 5.  The
keyboard is inoperable, so I have to cycle power to get out
of the situation.  Obviously, this is not a SuSE issue, but
the nv driver issue.  What _is_ a SuSE issue is that the
installation code can verify that the video driver is working
correctly before making a permanent installation.  You can
well imagine how much work it takes to reboot into run level 3
and then try to divine what went wrong.  There are _no_ error
messages, you know.  The driver thinks everything is fine and
dandy.  It is just that nobody ever types anything in.  Nothing
wrong with that.  Eventually after a couple of re-installs and
a couple of dozen reboots, I finally got the nvidia driver
downloaded and the configuration hand merged from one of the
working OS images I had on my disk.

I think the process was too hard.
