I don't remember if we went over this before, but what video driver are
you using for the Nvidia card? There are two different drivers, the
stock driver that comes with xorg/XFree86 (Open Source) and probably
shipped with Suse, or the driver from Nvidia's website (closed source).

The Nvidia driver has a substantial increase in performance over the
open source driver, since the open source version is basically reverse
engineered. If you are already running the closed source driver, then
try getting the latest version, 6626 (I think).
