I'm a newbie to Linux, and am trying to install SuSe Linux 9.2 to a dual Opteron 248 system. I can get all the way through YAST until the monitor/graphics card setup. I have a Viewsonic VP191b 1280 x 1024 monitor with an nVidia GeoForce N6800 Extreme video card. The monitor test locks up and won't responde to "CONTROL+ALT+BACKSPACE". When I do a hard reboot at either level 3 or 5, the initialization gets to the section "Starting Unicode", and then reboots back into GRUB. Safe mode does not work. I have tried reinstalling with VESA, LCD, etc to no avail. After my 4th install, I am about to give up.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
