Hi all, I've done several test installs of opensuse 10.3, but none will boot into KDM. I formatted over my old 9.3 install in did an clean install there, with /home there as well. I always try a test install before I move to the new version. I've tried 2 different video cards but neither works so far, of is an ATI 9200 AGP, the other is an ATI 9500 AGP. In all cases I get to the command line showing that runlevel 5 has been reached, but no desktop. I have not tried Gnome, but I don't think that matters. To summarize what I did... With ATI 9200 card 1. Format with ext3, install, did online update, select 3D at the end of the install config, runlevel 5 shows to be reached, but no desktop. 2. Re-format with reiser, install, did not do online update, do not select 3D, no desktop. 3. Re-format with ext 3, install, did not do online, update, do not select 3D, no desktop. With Ai 9500 card 1. Re-format with ext3, install, do not select 3D, no desktop. I can VNC into port 5901 in all cases, but local graphics won't work. In all cases running sax2 returns an error citing to check the log, but sadly, I don't know what I'm looking for in there. FYI the 9200 ran better in opensuse10.2 in 3D. The 9500 ran very slowly in 10.2 and only in 2D, but I was hoping 10.3 would get me working in 3D with the 9500, but so far I'm moving backwards, not forwards. I'd really like to get this graphics stuff sorted out. All installs were done on the same machine, Abit nf7 mobo, Athlon 2500, 1.5gb ram, both pata and sata drives seem to work fine. I'd really appreciate any help with this. Many thanks, Jim F -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
