I used to see this on 11.1 and 11.2 thru RC1. Look at
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/SUSE/suse.xml
make sure line five(5) reads as follows:
<item type="pixmap" id="background" background="true">
What I was seeing, after installing the Nvidia driver something was deleting the background="true" from the line. This caused either a checkerboard or various pieces of the previous desktop to appear at various times during boot.
I am now on 11.2 RC2 with the latest Nvidia driver: NVIDIA-Linux- x86_64-190.42-pkg2.run. Problem has not re-occurred.
Hope this helps.
I am running a 9800GT with the Nvidia driver 185.18.36 compiled locally against my kernel. I see this occur on login but only on the second monitor (I'm running twinview). This did *not" happen with my previous GeForce FX5500 card running the same driver - it only started when I upgraded to the 9800GT. Yes, I checked the above file and the background="true" parameter is indeed present and accounted for (despite having recently reinstalled the nvidia driver after an X11 update). -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
