Drew,
FWIW. I finished the test kernel package, you could follow the instruction here and test.
$ zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/michael-chang:/branches:/ope... kernel-bnc719076 $ zypper in -r kernel-bnc719076 kernel-default
And don't forget to edit /etc/zypp/zypp.conf to allow multiple kernel version installed.
multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)
Please take your time and looking forward to hear any update for this. :)
I added the repo (after changing /etc/zypp/zypp.conf as you has mentioned) and then installed the new test kernel... .. once reboot after selecting the new kernel from the GRUB menu openSUSE begins to load, the screen flickers (this is where the backlight normally turns off) and the backlight stays on but the screen goes black and the OS seems to stop loading (we never get to the point where Geeko's eyes starts moving). I tried letting it sit for a bit but nothing changes and the openSUSE never finishes loading. But on the plus side the backlight stays on! :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
