Hi,
I am writing this from my work computer - you can probably guess that things
haven't gone well.
I downloaded and installed the kernel rpm.
There were no errors or warnings visible.  A YaST dialog indicated to reboot.
On rebooting there was an extra menu item indicating the kernel that was just
installed.
I selected that menu item.  The computer boots to a command prompt.  I login as
root. Then type 'startx' this fails complaining about an nvidia driver.

I reboot and select the opensus 10.2 startup option - my standard startup
choice.
This does the same: boots to a command prompt rather than KDE, and startx fails
with the same/similar error message about an nvidia driver.

Is it possible for me to return to my initial setup?  If so will I have a
'bizarre'/non-standard setup, or will my setup really be 'as it was'?
I really don't have time at the moment to become involved is in a drawn out
debug exercise - I'm going to try and return the HDD.  I'm sorry I couldn't be
more help at this time.

I look forward to your reponse.
Regards
