Using nouveau on openSUSE 11.3

Nouveau, for those unknowing souls, is the next generation open source nvidia display driver.

Starting to use it however, after an openSUSE 11.1 -> 11.2 -> 11.3 upgrade, could be cumbersome.
Especially resolutions tend to be not resolved correctly.

To try and polish things up, try the following console command:
mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak

then restart X (ctrl+alt+backspace or the nicer way of logging out).
Everything will be detected automagically then
