<br />
*XBMC Media Center can be install via package manager with packman repo install<br />
<br />
*Follow instructions then Reboot<br />
*Your done!<br />
*check out packman repo for extra plugins and stuff,<br />
--winglman--<br />
<br />
===OpenSuSe 12.1 (Driver from AMD website) easy way...===<br />
*Download The Latest AMD Driver from ATI/AMD<br />
wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-10-x86.x86_64.zip<br />
<br />
unzip amd-driver-installer-12-10-x86.x86_64.zip<br />
chmod +x amd-driver-installer-9.002-x86.x86_64.run<br />
<br />
*Open software manager in YAST and install 5 packages by hand:<br />
''kernel-devel kernel-desktop-devel gcc gcc-c++ make'' <br /><br />
OR use the terminal and run:<br />
sudo zypper in kernel-devel kernel-desktop-devel gcc gcc-c++ make kernel-syms<br />
*reboot<br />
*'''If radeon driver is active''' you must blacklist it, add this to boot paramaters (during grub startup menu):<br />
radeon.modeset=0 blacklist=radeon 3<br />
*This will disable radeon driver and boot into runlevel 3. SU to get root, run mkinitrd to make sure radeon stays blacklisted.<br />
*(Comment) in case the above method does not help, you may try add to /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf the following line<br />
blacklist radeon<br />
<br />
*(Comment) Either way, when your linux booted, you should check whether the radeon kernel module is not loaded, run <br />
lsmod | grep radeon<br />
if nothing comes up you are good to go<br />
*cd to directory where proprietary "amd-driver-installer" is, <br />
type: <br />
sh amd-driver-installer-*.run <br />
*install default (do not generate distibution package)<br />
*verify /usr/share/ati fglrx-install.log, at the end of the file you should see "build succeeded with return value 0 duplicating results into driver repository...done.<br />
*in terminal type: <br />
aticonfig --initial -f<br />
*then run:<br />
/sbin/shutdown -r now<br />
<br />
===To Uninstall===<br />
Open terminal,SU to get root,type:<br />
sh /usr/share/ati/amd-uninstall.sh<br />
<br />
==Video Playback==<br />
Add Packman Repositories<br />
*Open YAST<br />
*Open Software Source,Click add,From URL<br />
*and add this url http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_12.1<br />
*This will provide extra packages for video playback and other stuff<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Good luck,<br />

===OpenSuSE 11.0 & 11.1 The Easy Way===<br />
*There is a one click installer available [http://en.opensuse.org/ATI_Driver_HOWTO#1-click_install_for_openSUSE_11.1.2C_11.0_and_10.3] for both of these OS's, this will give you access to a working ATi driver however it may not be the latest one available.<br />
<br />
EDIT: This is currently not working. ATi Repository is down for OpenSUSE.<br />
<br />
===OpenSuSE 11.0 & 11.1 With The Latest Driver===<br />
<br />
You can easily install the latest versions of the ATi driver on OpenSuSE 11.0+.<br />
<br />
*Download The Latest ATi Driver.<br />
*Log in as Root using su<br />
*Install some dependencies with: '''zypper in kernel-source gcc make patch''' ''(I think, this needs more documentation & explanation in and of itself)''<br />
*Install the ATi Driver with: '''sh ./ati-driver-installer-VERSION.run'''<br />
*Configure X to use the ATi Driver with: '''aticonfig --initial -f'''<br />
*Configure sax2 to use the driver with sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx <b>Test May Crash the computer, Press Save</b><br />
*Exit the root account with exit<br />
*Reboot the computer. <i>You can restart X by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace twice however rebooting is more reliable</i><br />
<br />
Which came first, the problem or the sotluion? Luckily it doesn't matter.<br />

===GUIDE: ATI Installer HOWTO for SUSE/Novell users===<br />
http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/ati-installer-HOWTO.html<br />
<br />
<br />
===YET ANOTHER Installation Guide:===<br />
<br />
Generally following this guide should help most of you:<br />
http://linux.wordpress.com/2006/05/12/suse-101-ati-drivers-installation/<br />
<br />
What follows is a slightly simplified version that I've used numerous times without fail.<br />
<br />
<br />
1. BACKUP your current <code>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</code> file, preferably to your home directory. Now change to a command shell by hitting Ctrl-Alt-F1.<br />
<br />
<br />
2. Remove any previous versions of the ATI driver by either<br />
<br />
If you have installed a previous ATI driver version without using RPM packages (or if you don't know if you have or not), type the following:<br />
<br />
cd /usr/share/ati <br />
sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh<br />
<br />
Otherwise, and even if you've done the above type the following,<br />
<br />
rpm -e $(rpm -qa | grep fglrx)<br />
<br />
<br />
3. Change the directory containing the downloaded ati-driver...run file.<br />
<br />
<br />
4. Change the permissions of the driver file to executable by typing the following:<br />
<br />
chmod +x ./ati-driver...<br />
<br />
Use the tab button to complete the rest of the ati-driver... file name.<br />
<br />
<br />
5. Create a SUSE RPM (info is for 32 bit version) from the file by typing<br />
<br />
./ati-driver-installer-*.run --buildpkg SuSE/SUSE101-IA32<br />
<br />
<br />
6. Install the created fglrx... file by typing<br />
<br />
rpm -ivh fglrx_...(hit tab again to get full name)...<br />
<br />
<br />
7. The following command will update your library cache, you're recommended to run it:<br />
<br />
ldconfig<br />
<br />
<br />
8. Now run the ati config commands:<br />
<br />
aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf<br />
<br />
<br />
9. Now run the Sax2 setup.<br />
<br />
sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx<br />
<br />
You may wish to alter the refresh rates and DPI info with this, otherwise just hit save. DO NOT hit the test button, it regually crashes my machine when i do...<br />
<br />
<br />
10. Reboot you machine. Do not use the reboot command, again this messes my machine up on the next boot for whatever reason... try<br />
<br />
shutdown -h now<br />
<br />
<br />
11. Boot up again, and check the new /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, compare it to your old one, and make any changes if you know what you're doing.<br />

<div>This worked like a champ for me. Thanks for the step by step. I have dual ATI Radeon HD 5450s running 4 screens. <br />

The "in software manager enable "fedora 18 source\source-update" " has me lost. I am using Gnome3, and open the "Software" activity. Trying to search for "fedora 18 source" returns hundreds of entries. Is there a command line way to do this? Is the package under "Programming" or "System" or what.. something to help refine paging through all this stuff. I never did find it. Gave up and bought a nVidia card.<br />

I'm afraid there are no saraly standards for such work, whatever that work is. I have to assume that's a job where you may participate on sites, joining conversations and mixing some advertising messages. A lot of this work is taken care of by 3rd world outsource worker for a few bucks an hour. You can find such job descriptions at freelance marketplace sites like odesk.com or freelancer.com (without having to join or log in)There are also micro task site s that pay small change for a few minutes work, the original Mechanical Turk was created by Amazon to automate' tasks a computer couldn't do, like pick the better of 2 photos, they named mturk.com after the 18th century chess playing machine that had a man hidden inside. Many of the tasks are boosting the popularity of sites by visiting or voting them up, there are also more shady actions they may ask you to take, including signing up for product trials for which they get a commission, your choice. Having Facebook, Google+ and social bookmarking site helps your qualification. Shorttask.com and microworkers.com are similar sites.<br />
<br />
==Good luck==<br />
