We no longer set vga parameter? So you added vga=0x366 mnomodeset to end up in fbdev driver mode?

The real workaround is to add JUST vga=0x366 (no nomodeset). Little disadvantage is that I do not get any plymouth bootsplash but at least I can see something during boot time including my X session. I'll add the Xorg log (from a "blank" boot without the vga parameter) later. -- 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.

Changed DVD Setup language to German - left the resolion unchanged to "default". 2.) The setup was in graphic mode without issues. 3.) The system restarted automatically and processed the automatic configuration before finishing the setup 4.) KDM startet and I was able to logon After a restart the same error occured again - nothing to see after Grub. So I did the following: 1.) Set the user "juergen" to autologon 2.) Rebootet the system - I ensured KDE was startet but still nothing to see. 3.) I logged in via ssh from a remote machine and checked the settings via xrandr: xrandr -display :0.0 -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1400 x 1050, maximum 4096 x 4096 LVDS1 connected 1400x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 305mm x 228mm 1400x1050 60.0*+ 60.0 50.0 1280x1024 60.0 1280x960 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 56.2 640x480 60.0 59.9 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DVI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 4.) Changed the resolution to other modes: xrandr -display :0.0 -q --output LVDS1 --mode 1400x1050 xrandr -display :0.0 -q --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x1024 xrandr -display :0.0 -q --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x768 xrandr -display :0.0 -q --output LVDS1 --mode 800x600 I was able to see that the screen did something since the backlight seemed to be working - it went off and on again for a short time so I guess changing the resolution works. 5.) After setting the mode to 800x600 I checked it again xrandr -display :0.0 -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 800 x 600, maximum 4096 x 4096 LVDS1 connected 800x600+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 305mm x 228mm 1400x1050 60.0 + 60.0 50.0 1280x1024 60.0 1280x960 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3* 56.2 640x480 60.0 59.9 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DVI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) Any ideas what to check next? -- 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't be more specific about that, but it showed up just recently. After booting everything works as usual, but at a certain point the screen goes black. Unfortunately this is where one is supposed to enter a password for an encrypted disk. As far as I can tell visually, the blackness occurs at a time-label of about 3.5xxxx-ish (see boot.log) After having entered the password and X starts up the screen is working again, including switching to text consoles. -- 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.
