the issues I had with the Fan and Nvidia got corrected. All I needed
was a BIOS update.

Catimimi,

I had a similar issue.

I installed 11.2 on a dell XPS 1330.

After a successful install, I used the nvidia one click install
(http://en.opensuse.org/NVIDIA) since it worked ok for me on an ealier
version (11.1).

If I boot the computer on the same 11.2 boot option  I used before X
does not start, but for some reason I had a different 11.2 boot option
available at this point. On the other option X starts fine. This is
where it gets strange. The boot went on fine, but the moment the
NVIDIA logo shows the fan goes crazy, and this stops after a few
minutes and everything works great. I unstalled the nvidia drivers
with YAST and did not have the fan problem again. Installed NVIDIA
with the 1 click option again and saw the Fan issue once more.

I will do the nvidia installation "the hard way". Maybe I get a
different result.

If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know.

Thanks,

Rodrigo

Hi,

1° - I installed opensuse 11.2 with the Nvidia driver downloaded from
Nvidia,
everything works OK.

2° - I cloned the kernel, then compiled it, this kernel boots OK.

3° - I installed the NVidia driver on this cloned kernel, X doesn't start !!

Did someone meet the same experience ? and what can be done ?

Thanks for reply.
Regards.
Michel.
