To work with an graphic desktop boot the system with init 3 and start X with startx command.

Not really. What you apparently did was booting into failsafe mode (which include "x11failsafe" boot option). This way you're using the X configuration from installation, in your case this means using the "vesa" instead of the native "ati" driver. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
