[opensuse-factory] Garbage login screen after install 11.3M2

Hi, I installed 11.3M2 on a system with a Geforce 8600 GT graphics card, and two monitors attached to it. Installation went - not regarding bug #581515 concerning complaints of grub, which I ignored - smoothly, up till the point of installing the packages. I left the system while it went installing the packages, and returned after half an hour, to see only a few green lines, on both monitors the same. Hard reset was the only option, and on restart I got some green points - not a real improvement. I couldn't find a bug for this. Any thoughts?

Some additional observations: - the cursor arrow *is* visible, and responds to mouse movements. - removing the second monitor doesn't help. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

This seems indeed to be the bug that stitches me. Strange enough I didn't find it looking for X.org bugs in11.3 (searchin' with that keywords leads only to bugs 582329 <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=582329> and 580928 <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580928>) thnks!
