I just installed a new Radeon R9 380 card today, and tried booting into Tumbleweed. Grub loaded without issue but when it was suppose to show the screen to input my LUKS password, only the following error messages appear:

I have Ubuntu loaded in a separate partition to boot into which also briefly shows something similar, but immediately loads lightdm without issue. I would not the Ubuntu installation is running the proprietary drivers, but not Tumbleweed.
What packages am I suppose to install to get the card working properly on Tumbleweed?
Sorry, I meant Ubuntu is running the fglrx drivers but not Tumbleweed. Sort of garbled my sentence there.
I don't know if the last fglrx packaged I have can really help with the newer card repo http://geeko.ioda.net/mirror/amd-fglrx/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ wiki page https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:AMD_fglrx It's not the latest published by AMD, (end of december), but I didn't get news from our script maintainer Sebastian Siebert, which normall include special patches to make fglrx working with very recent kernel. At least the rpm version can be cleanup easily. For tumbleweed, I really recommends to use the free drivers (but sometimes this one lack good support for latest chips). Perhaps you can edit your boot line (type e on the grub line) use arrow to move to kernel line and add a nomodeset You didn't tell us what was the previous card installed. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Board, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot
