I use 2.6.36-89-desktop which is yesterday build of HEAD. Before I used RC
version without any problems.
The key advice here is to enable multiversion in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf .
This should be easy as there is example line:
# multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)
removing # will activate multiversion option for kernel.
The reason is that HEAD repo has only the latest build, so if something
doesn't work for you, you will have older kernel as easy fallback option,
instead of excitement to repair system from Live CD :-)
Disadvantage of this option is that it will keep all kernels that you install
until you manually remove them.

I figured a kernel upgrade might help with the
problem, but now that I've seen someone actually do it, I'm a bit more
convinced :)
