Hi,

Latest factory only boots into a black X without any way to go into text console - the only thing that works is pressing the power off to trigger reboot.

Does anyone else see this problem or is it specific to my hardware?

Sounds specific to your hardware. Latest X stack + Kernel from factory works for me unless I try to use KMS (Intel 945GM).

Hmm, I have Intel 965 GM and it fails even if I use i915.modeset=0 explicitly ;(

I hope this is still our default. :-)

I'm now updating to X11:Xorg explicitly, let's see if it works with it.

I can confirm with 11.1 and XOrg repository, self compiled 2.6.30.2 kernel and stock update 11.1 kernel both failed with the same result, blank screen and no way to switch to text console or kill the X-Server. Intel X4500HD integrated here. Can't do further testing though as I switched back to 11.1 xorg now.

I do as well.

Thanks for the head up! This means I should not update my notebooks installation until this get's resolved. Hope to read here soon some success story about this again.

BTW: it wasn't specific to my hardware but to my broken installation. I had old libdrm files around - left from an experiment with git versions, nothing someone else would get :) Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
