Yes, the FACTORY kernel is unfortunately broken for many :-(
We will checkin a new kernel now, that one should work. you can use the latest kotd (kernel of the day) from ftp (ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/HEAD/).
Sorry, most of us where moving offices (inside the building) today and that led to some delays:-(

Thank you for this reference - I'll see if this will repair the 'damage'. Unfortunately, when 11.0B3 was upgraded (~900 upgrades) a couple of nights ago I had to re-install 11B3 from scratch to "recover" -- which also caused me to lose all my latest e-mail (my backups aren't done on a daily basis). Last night I re-installed 11B3 from scratch, from the DVD, and noticed that B3 installs as the *default* selection the "-pae" kernel and not the "-default" kernel for "single and multiprocessors". (The pae kernel was also the one installed at the time and it was upgraded when the ~900 upgrades were done a couple of nights ago and the system wouldn't boot (also the nVidia 178-03 beta driver would not compile - error message states that the pae 2.6.25.4-2 kernel is compiled using gcc4.2 but the script(s) are asking for 4.3 [or words to this effect]) . Considering that I have always used an AMD CPU, and my computer (put together by myself) is now 3 years old I don't know why suddenly 11B3 decided that I need the "-pae" kernel rather than the usual "-default" as in past SuSEs/openSUSEs.)
