I'm sorry, the Matrix graphics is more of a hindrance than a help.
It uses the software only OpenGL driver, Mesa, to do its 3D
drawing. And the easiest way to get a newer version of Mesa on your
system is to update it to OpenSUSE 13.2 or the latest Ubuntu. If
you have the option of installing an AMD or NVIDIA graphics card in
your system, do so, and install the proprietary driver. It will be
like going from walking to driving a car -- much faster, and you can
buy a budget car, a regular car, or race car, depending on your
budget. :-)<br>

Is there any earlier version of Chimera specific to my VGA ? I

Try running "chimera --debug", it should give a clue where in
the initialization process chimera died. That said, it is
most likely a graphics driver bug. Run "lspci | grep VGA" to
see what kind of graphics card you have. Then, if OpenSUSE
has a tool or package for that graphics card, install it. If
not, if you have ATI/AMD or NVIDIA graphics, you will download
the right driver from amd.com or nvidia.com, respectively, and
install it. If you have Intel graphics, upgrade your system
to OpenSUSE 13.2.<br>
<br>
Best of luck and please let me know if updating the
graphics driver fixes the bug,<br>
