OpenSUSE Hardware :: How To Determine If 3D Accel Is Activated

I've read and re-read NVIDIA the hard way but before I do this I was hoping to get a few items cleared up for the text.

First: I have 11.2 installed and the latest reference is to 11.1. Can I assume comments about 11.1 pertain to 11.2?
Second: There's a line about using Sax2 that states: "With 10.0 you won't need to specify -m 0=nvidia any more, sax automatically detects and uses it if you activate 3D acceleration."

I had to use the sax2 -r -m 0=nv to get my display to use the nv driver. Won't I need to do the same for 11.2?
And how do I determine if 3D accel is activated? Is that a selection in a dialog that occurs during the sh NVIDIA-yada-yada.run -q execution or what?
