Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but with my technical support hat on, have 
you tried the article relating to this
problem in the sDB? 
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Black_screen_after_installation_startup 

I that does solve it, it might be an idea to report back.  This is a problem 
that use to come up a lot a few years ago.
 Not so much any more but if somethings going to cause it to reemerge it's ugly 
head then I hope we can kill it before
it goes into general cerculation.

Thanks
