I update to 11.4 back in march but had to take all my systems back to 11.3, 11.4 is not usable, for me, due to 2 key problems I ran into.
First one is in the following bug posts https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665720 and https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680297. There appears to be no fix yet, but curious if anyone knows, how stable the work around using the RUN_PARALLEL="no" is.
Second issue: amd cpu based desktop locking up at random with no error messages. The only symptom is there are a lot of [900.000017] [Hardware Error]: No human readable MCE decoding support on this cpu type errors in syslog and the numerical number is different each time. I used the nomce option which does stop the error messages, but the amd cpu based desktop is still unstable, with random lock ups.
I like to upgrade 11.4, but for now, 11.4 is not usable, so I stay on 11.3
Thanks,
Tony
I encountered this problem on my 32 bit install (11.4) on an athlon based box. Booting with the "nomce" option eliminated or suppressed the problem. You can make this more permanent by turning MCE reporting off in Yast-System Settings. Turned out my problem was simply a bad CD in my CD drive. I removed it and the problem has not returned.
