now is a big shot... the no screen error I get myself too... with grub2-efi/systemd/plymouth on some exotic hw (mac bookpro)... on grub/systemd/plymouth I have no issues...

I think the module is loaded... it seems it fails to query the
display. I will check it again tomorrow.

Hi Sid,
good points... not all of them but still... do you have grub2 or grub2-efi installed?
It's grub2. I have EFI in the BIOS set to Auto, my .config has "CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION=y" and CONFIG_EFI is not set.
* nouveau loaded and I needed to install the proprietary nvidia 295.40 after a zypper dup had overwritten /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.
this is normal... is documented in the nouveau FAQ... pretty annoying... restore the symbolic link and happiness is back.
Of course, quite normal.
* plymouth progress stops. * Alt-F1 keyboard inactive for login but CTRL-ALT-DEL works.
* Only login access is via ssh from another box.
when you say this, you get a black screen? can you check and post the log of xorg for failures?
The plymouth progress bar just stops. Next kernel build I shall check it, Xorg.0.log.old says "no screens found" but that was without nouveau modules loaded and the nvidia module not built.

nouveau modules not loaded.>> again xorg errors...

Most likely cause is "no screens found" as they would be no driver at this stage.
