Have you tried adding "nomodeset" to the command line when you boot the ISO or selecting "safe" mode? I've found that necessary on my ancient NVidia chipset.
Yes, I tried nomodeset and safe mode... no effect. The ISOs boot up fine - I can follow he boot sequence along right up until YaST is launched, and then nothing, and I can't see anything obvious yet that gives me any hint as to what's going wrong.
Besides nomodeset, you also want textmode=1. Starting an X server's plugins that require KMS to be active seldomly goes unpunished when KMS is deactivated via nomodeset.
Hi all,
I'm using 12.1 on my Z-Box to type this, I had no issues at all either installing (in November I think, looking at file dates) or running daily since. I use this machine too much to be able to use it for 12.2 pre-release tests unfortunately.
I don't have "nomodeset" or "textmode" elements in my kernel parameters, just LUKS encryption (which also installed perfectly) - if you want me to post any config files let me know.
I didn't think nomodeset would help in this situation... and it made no difference. I did manage to get 12.2rc1 (and 12.1) to install by using the text version of the installer. It just refuses to install using the GUI YaST.
Now I've got new issues... mainly horrendous Flash performance. Separate issue and a topic for another email over on the main mailing list since I'm working on 12.1 right now as the main OS.

I you are seeing blue skin in youtube videos with Flash. Right-click and select Settings and disable "enable hardware accleration". -- Cheers! Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
