FWIW, this is all persuant to my threads "12.1 installation failure" and "Video cards and 12.1" of the past few days.
What were you using last before 12.1 (or now?)?
Not on this machine, but 11.4 - where it happily copes with an integrated intel graphics chip. Just did a reinstall to get around an inability to reboot (tried to raid 1 that /boot partition again. Sometimes works, sometimes not) After the "initial reboot", yast comes back in curses mode with The graphical interface could not be started The required packages were not installed or the graphics card is not properly supported. Now, in between, I found out (upthread) that this card needs KMS. As I'm in a nomodeset install, that probably explains the message. Going to see if I can simply reboot - without nomodeset and 50-device.conf set to use "radeon". .......... Ok, now I've got an install with no Xorg binary.... How many times do I have to go through this? And Yast thinks xorg-11 is installed.
