Dear Mark,

The radeon.modeset=0 will only solve the issue for a non functional DRI radeon
driver. This means that Xorg will normally start, but desktop effects can not
be enabled.

If Xorg already did not start before you set this cmdline option, then you
face the hald bug, which as a different workaround.

Please also remember that this radeon.modeset=o option should be removed as
soon as you update the kernel !! This option is only valid for the openSUSE
kernel version 2.6.31-rc4 (Milestone 5 only).

Regards

Raymond
