Do you mean the proprietary drivers from ATI, or the open source variant that comes with Suse?

When I switched to Suse 10 from Suse 9.2 I noticed similar problems with the chess screensaver. I could however play Tuxracer without problems. Starting sax2 from yast2 does not work, you have to start it in a console. I could enable 3D-acceleration, but that did not help, anyway, Tuxracer checks your 3D, and it did not complain before running sax2, and it did not after. But Sax2 still shows a 3D-logo with stripe, to say that it does not do 3D. Strange behaviour!

Now I have switched to the proprietary ATI-driver. See:

Maybe this helps.
