If I get this, do you know if it can detect my gforce2 mx card ?

Thanks

if it contains XFree86 4.0.3 or above (and I'm sure it does), it will be able to detect it. Red Hat 7.1 detected mine just fine.

also, Suse 7.3 is supposed to come out very soon, like a week or so. You may want to hold off on the install.

I would wait until 7.3 is out
Support is little flaky side.
At least that what have being hearing on SuSe mailling list.

I Still use SuSe 7.1 Pro on my personal Linux box so can not help tell my self.

SuSe 7.2 works fine with my GeForce2MX.

Once you have installed it you can use the online update in Yast2 to to get the latest Nvidia 3d drivers and then use Sax2 to to set up the 3d drivers if you are into games.

It is only set for 2d during the install.

Yast2 is a configuration utility built into SuSE distros. SaX2 is the X Configurator built into SuSE distros. Good tools, and yes SuSE's support blows. Fun distro though.
