Terje, there should not be any need to first roll-back. zypper dup --from will simply instruct to upgrade, prefering packages from Tumbleweed over packages in other repositories. Dominique

You shouldn't have to reinstalled. I've used "dup --from" to go forwards, GNOME3.x->forward, GNOME3.6->backwards, GNOME3.8->backwards, etc... it has always worked for me. You may have to run it twice; i just do that as a matter of course [I don't know why, but sometimes it picks up some straglers].
Ok, while this brought me some further, the current, new kernel still breaks the Gnome 3.8 login. Here is what happened on three different machines:

On my mobile workstation hp8710w (Xeon cpu) I tried Solution 1. The kernel-desktop-3.9.1-7.1.gb6484b6.x86_64 upgrade now breaks Gnome 3.8 login with the message like "Sorry, something wron happened, and more" and I just had to select "Logout".
On two other workstations (AMD3 cpu and Xeon cpu respectively) I choosed Solution 2 and kept kernel-desktop-3.7.10-1.1.1.x86_64. After some slow logins, it looks like Gnome 3.8 works on both these machines.

As the distro upgrade to Tumbleweed kernel-desktop-3.9.3-9.1.g0b5d8f5.x86_64 still breaks my Gnome 3.8.2 login, I want to hear if someone else here has succeeded with this? I can login to KDE, however. There also is problematic to reboot the HP/Intel Xeon/Nvidida machine with the new kernel, as the system then hang without reboot, and I have to power off and on again to startup. (On my AMD machine I don't even get other upgrade options than to keep the obsolete kernel-desktop-3.7.10-1.1.1.x86_64) Possibly someone can tell me how to roll back to the latter working kernel, without the need to reinstall everything from scratch? # zypper dup --from Tumbleweed Loading repository data...
