I'm having some problems with my new SuSE 9.0 network install.
http://sdb.suse.com/ has nothing interesting. http://hardwaredb.suse.com/ claims one of the TNT2 is "unknown" and the other has full support. Are you using the "nv" driver?
I'm not so sure if this IRQ reassignment under 9.0 is really the problem anyhow. I popped out the firewire card (ohci1394 above) so eth0 could grab IRQ 5 all for itself, but X still dies.
X does use the network, but you can test whether eth0 is a problem by using the network from the console before X starts. ping, lynx, ssh or something. Does it work?
My video card is a NVidia TNT2 32MB / AGP. It more or less worked find with SuSE 8.2.
I guess if you have bought the SuSE 9.0, then you get some support from SuSE themselves.
