This is partially a test of whether it has anything to do with the message I was attempting to reply to.
This one arrived.

I was trying to reply to the following. My replies keep bouncing. I've sent Ian a personal email and I'm giving up. My poiint main point for this list, is this may not be a wide spread problem and may not have anything to do with the release. On Saturday 15 January 2022, Ianseeks wrote:

All went well for a while then part the way through the installation process my graphical screen went totally blank with the cursor flashing in the top left corner.
I'm seeing this during 'zypper dup' in a VirtualBox VM since 2-3 months; another bare-metal system is fine. I have the strong feeling that this happens any time systemd gets updated.
I'm not using virtualbox VM, its just a plain install
It leaves the bad feeling behind that the update was interrupted in the middle of something. Since then, I start 'zypper dup' in a screen(1) session.
Have a nice day, Berny

I've not seen this issue with this dup or the following dup's. I'm currently using Nvidia 470.94-47 with 20220112, kernel 5.16.0-1-default, KDE desktop. I always do zypper dup from su-root in a KDE konsole, I've not had any issues with any updates due to my using a konsole. In the past I have had sessions fail while watching Youtube videos. This has always happened when chrome was set to use GPU acceleration. Setting GPU acceleration off always stabilised things. It seems some bad combo of kernel, graphics driver or browser was the cause. The problem often goes away when kernels and/or drivers are updated. I currently have chrome's GPU acceleration enabled and have not seen the issue for several months. It's worth examining or preserving $HOME/.local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log before restaring X11. There may also be clues in the journal (jounalctl), and maybe recent coredumps (coredumpctl). If I can't switch to a console I try ssh from another desktop or phone. Cheers, Michael
