I have read about many People experiencing the Black-Screen Problem with Opensuse-11.2 on Notebooks. Near completion, System reboots. Observing with Ctrl+Alt+F2: .. "Starting HAL daemon". After that, my screen turns white, then blurring to black and staying Black-Screen. Neither Ctrl+Alt+F2, nor Ctrl+Alt+Del work. The Keyboard seems locked, but i am not shure. Pressing the Power-Button shortly: results in Hard-Disk-Activity for 2 seconds, then nothing. System may be working, but for the User it is like a System-Crash since he can only power-off. Booting with Parameter "init 3" does not work. --- Work-around: ------------ * Shutdown Power * Attach external Monitor to VGA * Boot Notebook with installed System * When the white/black Screen occurs, try repeatedly to press Ctrl+Alt+F2 until you see a small #> in the left upper Corner (Command-Shell) * input:> init 3 * When Runlevel-3 ist reached, login as root with Password (maybe you have to change the Console with Ctrl+Alt+F3) * input:> sax2 -a * input:> init 5 * When Runlevel-5 ist reached, press ENTER * input:> shutdown -h now * When Power=off: Detach external Monitor. * At next System-Boot, the Screen should work normal an the Installation should continue with the final Configuration. --- -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
