-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 YaST is the tool that you did the install with. It should've asked you at install if you'd like to setup your graphics card. If not, you can start it from the commandline. 1) login as root 2) run yast 3) Use the arrows to move around and goto Hardware->Graphics card and monitor 4) Follow the instructions from there to configure your graphics card. You'll end up starting up a basic gui that will let you point and click to select video card and monitor if they're not auto detected. Also note that inside the terminal version of yast you can use ALT and the highlighted characters to move around the screen.
