When it did the first reboot, it could not start the graphics, so did the rest of the install in the text-based mode. That completed OK, including on-line update to kernel 3.7.7-1.2-default. With the installation finished, doing a normal boot stopped at the statement "Reached target Graphical Interface". The Xorg.0.log file from the failed boot is attached.

First the system updated the kernel to 3.7.9-1.4, and updated grub2. Before the update, the system would boot into recovery mode via the grub2 menu. Now after the update, it will not boot into recovery mode. Boot sequence stops at the statement "Reached target Graphical Interface". In the 12.3 grub2 menu there is no box to insert boot parameters. How do I get one? Is the right parameter to boot into a command line "multi-user.target"? I hope in CLI I can start yast2, then update to xf86-video-savage-2.3.6-15.1.i586.rpm and see what happens.

No change in behavior. Normal boot sequence stops at the statement "Reached target Graphical Interface". Booting into grub2 recovery mode works. With the workaround back in place, normal booting works. I see the changelog says -64-. Does this mean 64 bit instructions? This T23 is a 32 bit machine.

VT8636A [ProSavage KN133] AGP4X VGA Controller (TwisterK) (rev 01). I had OpenSuSE 12.2 Tumbleweed up and running smoothly with a 3.8.2 kernel when the 'zypper dup' update to OpenSuSE 12.3 ruined my X11 graphics configuration. After booting only the upper half of the screen showed the KDE login screen, the lower part only vertical stripes - not usable at all. I had had similar problems when installing Fedora 17 on that laptop in a multiboot coonfiguration. Fedora finally supplied a changed xf86-video-savage driver (xorg-x11-drv-savage-2.3.4-1.fc17.i686.rpm) that fixed the problem. This bug report and the linked workarounds helped a lot to get the old laptop up and running with OpenSuSE 12.3 again. I had to create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf file with this content: Section "Device" Identifier "Default Device" Driver "savage" Option "DisableTile" EndSection OpenSuSE 12.3 now started KDE, still reacting more sluggish than with previous OS 12.2. I noticed, that the kernel did not load the savage driver on startup, so I added 'modprobe savage' to /etc/init.d/boot.local . Now the scrolling of web pages works well again and the graphic card is recognized correctly according to the /var/log/Xorg.0.log . I appreciate a lot, that Linux doesn't force you to forget about your old hardware with every second update of the operating system! 3.7.10-1.1-pae #1 SMP i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux Repository: openSUSE Current OSS Name: xf86-video-savage Version: 2.3.6-2.2.1 Arch: i586 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Graphics behave well, and rebooting works. I notice that at the link in comment 1, the current version is xf86-video-savage-2.3.6-19.2.i586. When I tried to test updating to this, there were 50+ changes needed to resolve dependencies. See attachment xf86-video-savage-2.3.6-19.2.i586 conflicts in comment 20. Where can owners of old S3 Savage graphics cards get xf86-video-savage-2.3.6-17.1.i586.rpm? Or should we (1) update to all the factory packages, or (2) use the 12.3 default xf86-video-savage-2.3.6-2.2.1 .i586.rpm and change the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf file to DisableTile?

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805380 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805380#c22 --- Comment #22 from Stefan Dirsch 2013-03-19 04:50:26 UTC --- Meanwhile Xserver in obs://X11:XOrg has been updated to a newer VIDEO Driver ABI. So please no longer try to install/use this version on openSUSE 12.3. Instead just use Option "DisableTile" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf as stated in comment #19 without updating any package. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
