I have a new laptop with Intel N3530 chip with Intel HD Graphics. I can use openSUSE 13.2RC1 and Factory only in Rescue mode. It boots in non-Rescue mode up to the log in screen for KDE, but soon after logging in and the appearance of the first element in the KDE splash screen, a picture of a hard disc, the screen becomes black. Using ssh to get into the system from another system works OK, however I can't find any error message why the screen becomes black.
Does this sound the same as the above problem?
This thread is about: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=901506 which is upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85016
If so, what should I do?
I recommend to ask on intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org to see if it is a known issue or already fixed or if there is a workaround. Searching its archive and https://bugs.freedesktop.org/query.cgi might find an answer faster. Can you log into IceWM or TWM session without going black? If so, problem would be in KDE. Possibly asking on kde@mail.kde.org list could be fruitful.
