The X-server included in openSUSE 11.2 milestone 5 does not start on my Gigabyte MA74Gm-S2H mainboard. When starting X, the monitor enters sleep/standby mode. I disabled KMS by using radeon.modeset=0 as a kernel argument, without that the default kernel does not even boot.
The old openSUSE 11.0 works fine. For comparison, I also include the X.log for 11.0

OpenSUSE 11.2 milestone 5 is using an unstable version of the radeonhd driver, and a rather old one (May 4th! commit 4be5f715)
Either stick with a stable release, or get your hands dirty and try the latest cvs. If there are still problems, then post again.

Thanks for pointing that out. I tried the "master branch" from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd/snapshot/xf86-vi... Is this the latest driver available? Result: X is still not working, but the error message in the X.0.log is different...(see attached X.log) -Markus
