Bringing this back into the list, so we don't have a situation where complaints are public while solutions are private. The issue with the kernel installation was that depmod doesn't deal well with having the full debuginfo in the modules on a system with limited memory (when dealing with a module dir of several GB, 1G memory is limited). Installing with INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 works around the issue - and since the modules in the kernel RPMs have the debuginfo stripped and put in a separate package, we don't run into this on systems using the supplied RPMs. What Nouveau problems are you having? I have regular Xorg hangs with Nouveau on my system that present with the following message. I don't believe it to be kernel-related. [153286.983] [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop. I've filed a bug[1] upstream but the general consensus is that newer nVidia chips (I have an ION2) have introduced a microcontroller which the Nouveau driver doesn't know how to interact with. The Nouveau team is working on it, but it's slow going figuring out a black box within a black box. The proprietary nvidia driver doesn't hang on my system but is so slow that I actually prefer the full-speed and occasional hanging driver than to use the proprietary one. - -Jeff [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26980 - -- Jeff Mahoney SuSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkz8FdAACgkQLPWxlyuTD7JrXwCeJhS6g9+pmp/sD5R1v8HdkPa3 +FkAoJVQIlWAijJ/Pkg/xJpGulHq0oYs =7/r2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I had seen the same before with intel chips. Actually 11.3 on my daughter's Atom D510 was unusable until I installed latest X11:XOrg repo X code (about two months ago). Are you still seeing this with FACTORY or is it 11.3? If it's 11.3, adding X11:XOrg and doing "zypper dup" from that repo might be something to try. Funny thing: that was a system which I had bought because the old machine (with an i815 or such) was "too old to be supported", only to end up with a machine "too new to be supported" :-) -- Stefan Seyfried "Any ideas, John?"
