Unfortunately we can't track any NVIDIA driver bugs filed against openSUSE in Novell's bugzilla. Please complain directly to NVIDIA. Thanks.
Sorry that it took so long time for the reply: I had this freeze on a Live CD/DVD (11.3 x64 the newest stable at the moment) too. And there it was the nouveau driver. So I think it's not a bug in the NVIDIA driver. I've problems like this since I updated from 11.2 to 11.3. First I tried to do it with zypper but that failed and I had an error with the File System on boot. So I downloaded the Iso burned it at made the update from the DVD. I mention that because I think that my freeze problems could be a "chain" error caused by the broken Update with Zypper and not a real bug. -- 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.

Hmm. KMS is disabled when you boot a Live CD/DVD, but nouveau requires KMS, i.e. fbdev/vesa would be used as driver in your case. Or did you install this Live CD/DVD?

Yes, this sounds like a messed up system for me. Probabaly a fresh installation would be the best here. -- 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.

No I've only ran the Live CD/DVD. I didn't installed it. I worked a little bit on it and suddenly the Desktop froze like on my installed openSuse.
Then it's unlikely a graphics driver issue. I'm not aware of any desktop freezes with fbdev/vesa driver, whereas there are a lot with native drivers like intel, radeon, nouveau, fglrx, nvidia. -- 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.

Okay, I'll make a re-instillation of openSuse soon, after that I'll make a report. Thanks for the help. -- 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.

I can also add that I too have this problem. I have openSUSE 11.3 x86_64 on a LiveUSB. Usually freezes upon doing any random thing. I load with the VESA driver. Hangs even on the simlest task sometimes. First, it is usually the keyboard which stops responding (ctrl-alt-F2) usually still works so the keyboard is not completely dead. eventually must restart from case.
I think You're problem is caused by some other reasons, because I had only problems when I used the property NVIDIA drivers and I've had no problems/freezes in last time. I think it's better to open an extra Bug report for you're problem, or look in the past bug reports or in the FAQ when you haven't done this yet. Sincerely me... :) -- 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.
