No, I cannot find an option to disable it in the bios, but nothing seems to
detect the onboard video card, so my guess is that it disables it when the AGP
slot is in use. The BIOS also doesn't have an option to togle PNP OS, which
maybe part of the problem.

Yes.

I've installed the SuSE RPM. I needed the driver to get the NIC to work. The
sound and USB seem to work fine without it, I did not install the agpgart kernel
patch as the docs say that it is only for 2.4.20, and only needed if you have a
videocard that doesn't have an nvidia chipset.

Yes, I have the latest bios.
