Hello Stefan,
I now have the console display back.
Not exactly too sure where it has gone wrong.
Here are the steps i took:
a. there is indeed an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, which I believe I might have
copied from another system to try it out when i first hit the blank display
screen problem, but forgotten to removed it.
I removed it, reboot the workstation, but the console hows a pale white screen.
When I moved the cursor, it shows a few virtical rectangular blocks, basically
no readable screen.
b. I logged on over the network with an X-windows display, yast -i sax3
invoked sax3 - monitor, to select Intel driver, 1024x768 resolution.
startx - still shows the same rectangular blocks and unreadable screen.
c. applied you again and reboot.
Now the console display returns to normal.
I have noticed it is still using sax3 set up as I can find
proteus:/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d # ls 99*
99-saxdevice.conf 99-saxmonitors.conf 99-saxscreen.conf
proteus:/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d # grep -v "#" 99*
99-saxdevice.conf:Section "Device"
99-saxdevice.conf:Identifier "SaX3-device"
99-saxdevice.conf:Driver "intel"
99-saxdevice.conf:EndSection
99-saxmonitors.conf:Section "Monitor"
99-saxmonitors.conf:Identifier "SaX3-monitor"
99-saxmonitors.conf:Modeline "1024x768_60.00" 63.50 1024 1072 1176 1328 768
771 775 798 -hsync +vsync
99-saxmonitors.conf:EndSection
99-saxscreen.conf:Section "Screen"
99-saxscreen.conf:Identifier "SaX3-screen"
99-saxscreen.conf:Device "SaX3-device"
99-saxscreen.conf:Monitor "SaX3-monitor"
99-saxscreen.conf:DefaultDepth 24
99-saxscreen.conf:SubSection "Display"
99-saxscreen.conf:Depth 24
99-saxscreen.conf:Modes "1024x768_60.00"
99-saxscreen.conf:EndSubSection
99-saxscreen.conf:EndSection
So i suspect there were something not right at the YOU I did on 3rd Feb.
