My screen was corrupted during installation and I don't see the cursor. KMS (which appears to be broken for your graphics card) is active during installation. Fixed with RC1 (bnc #610352).
If you have problems with KMS, please try with kernel boot option 'nomodeset' as documented in our release notes. -- 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.

Cursor is OK and screen corruption is not observed.

In the third attempt it is detected ==> 1600x1200. I'm afraid S3/S4 never worked well with nv driver, especially on a desktop system. BTW, does S3/S4 work at all when booting into runlevel 3, i.e. without having X started at all? -- 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.

The system was rebooted just before the test to eliminate suspend/hibernate problems. I guess that the system would resume well from hibernate in runlevel 3 (and it did in both 3 and 5 in 11.2). It even resumes X and the system lives. Just the screen mode is not set properly after return from hibernation. I am able to do Ctrl+Alt+F1, then kill X/Xorg and start them again. Hibernate/resume worked well with nv driver in 11.2. (And the card is probably too old for the proprietary driver, but it never worked with the proprietary driver.) -- 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.

That needs to be confirmed first. Your card is still supported by the NVIDIA driver (release 173.14.25). -- 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.

There is no chance to return back to X. - Detached Xorg cannot be killed by killall Xorg, but killall -9 Xorg works. I am able to login to X again then (sometimes X starts to to 800x600, sometimes to 1600x1200).
