    northgate laptop video drivers 10.3

    Hi have a Northgate laptop model green731 with a SiS650 video onboard. I installed Suse 10.3 and all is well except the 3D video drivers.

    Does anyone have a place for them? So far there is no luck in Google, so far ....

    Thanks

    Hmmm not very good. It looks like that SIS has never supported Linux ergo no manufacturers drivers.

    Here is the one place I found and I'm not sure that 3D is supported.....

    Thomas Winischhofer - X.org/XFree86/Linux and SiS/XGI graphics chipsets

    Read the faq carefully.

    Good luck
