You're not capable of updating a single RPM of your installation and restart X? Since I didn't submit the package to factory yet (it hasn't been tested at all) it doesn't make sense to create a LiveCD for this. Hopefully Johan, Robin, Isis, Vadim can help here. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Note: You need a "udevadm trigger" after updating the packages. "udevadm info -e" shows "ID_INPUT.tags=vmmouse" for the mouse and event device and the xserver will be using it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'm not sure if the udevadm trigger makes sense in package %post or is even potentially dangerous or will cause errors if udev is not running during package installation. I haven't seen other packages doing this yet. They might just assume that the user will reboot sometime after installation. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I suggest to open a seperate bugreport.

Is there one yet? (In reply to comment #18)

Guys, i´m testing factory LiveCD build 0552 and i´m finally able to start LiveCD, but installation still doesn´t work. Still hangs :-(

Starting the installation from build 0556 results in a black screen here, however the X server is clearly running with the vmmouse driver - the VM takes/drops focus automatically when entering/leaving the VM window, and I can switch to other VTs. Any ideas why the X server is only displaying black? Is there any way I can get a shell at that point? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It has been unrelated to X/vmware drivers. YaST2 was waiting for a script to appear before running it, which was simply missing on LiveCD of M4. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
