Later I tryed with the kernel 3.3 from the repo factory-tested, and I tryed again with the fglrx driver wthout the parches, and it compiled ok, but when I try to load Xorg, I got a segmentation error.

Yesterday, I made a update of the system changing the repos to factory and tryed again wth the open source driver radeon, and I got again the same error of the begining:

What's hsappened with Sax? I do'nt found it on the system.

SaX has been gone since 11.2 - I seem to remember a project trying to resurrect it though.

I think Manu Gupta was working on Sax3, but as a proprietery Nvidia user I am unsure about the status. G

This is strange... it seems X server doesn't even try to load radeon. As for radeonhd, it is two and half years since last release and two years since the project was closed. I'm not sure it is good idea to keep it in the distribution (and to try it before radeon).

Yet, at least loads kdm, and if I try to login as user or root, reloads the same screen.

I attached again the actual Xorg.0.log.

Thanks, Juan Don't know if it helps, but i had to choose my desktop before login, otherwise it would reset to kdm. The normal "KDE Plasma Workspace" solved this, had to do this only once.

This has happened to me too on more than one 12.2Mx system.

I had similar problem on 12.1 with KDE 4.8 repository. The reason was that DEFAULT_WM in /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager was set to "kde" but KDE version 4.8.3 discarded the link /usr/share/xsessions/kde4.desktop -> kde-plasma.desktop The solution was either to create the link, set DEFAULT_WM to "kde-plasma" or to explicitly select "KDE Plasma Workspace" instead of "Default" on KDM login screen.

It worked ok! (at least can load kde and connect to internet to install some packages).

But now, I have no sound, and do'nt find the way to configure the sound, and k3b, do'nt finds the dvd writer. Later verified, and the Yast-sound and printer modules, are not installed.

Hi! I reinstalled the system from the same bet1 dvd, disabling the install from images, and now it works fine. KDE loaded at the first attempt, k3b detects the dvd writer, has sound. All the problems are derived from install from images.

There are no xf86 strings in any openSUSE X11 package names I've encountered in 12.2 or any recent release, if ever. Most users will get all the FOSS drivers they need from xorg-x11-driver-video. Supplemental FOSS packages are available for radeonhd, nouveau, unichrome, ivtv and intel-legacy. Starting with 12.2 (again) these packages exist.

Most users of FOSS drivers do not need any xorg.conf or xorg.conf.d/ files. Xorg should automagically load the correct driver.

Thats true, but the driver exists for quite a while now (9 years as far as i can see) and at this time ati did exist ;-).
