Thanks for the helps but like I says, I'm a RedHat whore because of the lack 
of some of those interfaces. I tried using Yast2 for setup of my video card 
and it puked on me when I chose a different set of NVIDIA drivers for my card 
whether I told it to use 3D acceleration or not. I just want to set up X 
manually and may just copy over my XF86Config from my RedHat box. Another 
thing I tried to do in the control panel was tell it to start me in text 
mode. It managed to not start KDM but still started XDM. Damn it! Oh well. 
I'll be playing with it when time allows. 
For those reading all of this .... 
Is there a file I can edit to specify an XF86Config? For instance: I want one 
setup for my 21" beast and another for my LCD and be able to choose which one 
by throwing it in as an option when I start X?

      so... I used to use suse a lot... but not since 6.3... there is a 
program 
called yast (or yast2, or maybe yast3 by now...)  it can be helpful. Setting 
up the gui in suse is a little tricky, but not too hard usually. you dont 
select a monitor from a list, you configure your monitor from scratch using 
sax (not sex... thats something entirely different...)  sax is cool :) but it 
takes some time clicking arrows to tweek your display right, after that, its 
just exactly the way you want it though ;)
