    How to uninstall ati radeon drivers?

    Hi guys. I have replaced my abit motherboard and ati radeon 9000 pro graphics card, and now when I boot the suse 10.2 it won't run into KDE desktop, it remains in command line. Even if I run startx I can't get into graphic mode. I gues I have to uninstall the ati drivers in order to boot normaly, but don't know how that goes. Which command removes the ati radeon driver, how do I know where is it placed on disk? Can someone please help me with this. Thanx for help.

    as root

    sax2 -r -m 0=vesa

    This will take you back to the default vesa driver. You will then probably want to install the driver for your new video card.
