[opensuse-factory] Sax YAST
Hi All, Alpha 5 installs OK as long as I dont mess around with the proposed solution regarding the X config. As soon as I even think of touching SAX to configure my screen the screen goes wild. I can not test it since CT+ALT+BSpace leads me to nowhere. Next time i start the system it returns to a wild screen..... Only option is to go out the hard way by cutting the power. How do I set up GRUB in order to obtain a level 3 (without X) startup option so that I can reach YAST and SAX --- If, while downloading iso a5, there are so many leachers why does Ktorrent closes its opperation fter my download is complete.??? I was away and my ktorrent should have provided more people with open source software... Where is the switch to make ktorrent behave more in a socialist way since it is not costing me a penny extra.... Hugo

When booting on initial GRUB screen enter as option 3. It will bring you in runlevel 3. When you have problem like now: 1) try to use Ctrl-Alt-<Plus> or <Minus> key on numeric pad, to cycle trough available (configured) graphic modes. 2) use Ctrl-Alt-F1 (or any F1 to F6) to open terminal, login as root, type init 3 and wait until it tells you that runlevel 3 is reached. The hard method is necessary only if graphic card is really badly missconfigured, so you can't see anything even in a text mode. -- Regards, Rajko M. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
