Can't find the reason why openSUSE 11.3 (32 bits) doesn't boot up when I change my laptop's ram cards. I changed 2gb 667Mhz (1gb x2) for 4gb 800Mhz (2gb x2). BIOS recognize the 4gb, GRUB comes up and then the black screen stops the load. The weird thing is that the system seems to be working behind but the screen doesn't display anything.
When you say the black screen stops the load, do you mean that you see the grub menu and choose a system to boot and then it goes black?
If so, have you tried running memtest from the grub menu?
If not, can you explain at exactly what point it does go black?
Cheers, Dave
memtest says that there's no errors in ram.
I'm seriously thinking in to re-install my OS :/
Some news.
My last decision was to make a new installation from scratch. The surprise here was that this is not possible. (This looks like a bad joke). Useful info: Just after the kernel load at the openSUSE 11.3 installation the screen gets black just exactly the same way as in GRUB when I try to boot the installed OS. If I change video to text or VESA mode It DO works. I mean the installation starts in text mode. This tells me that the issue is related to video problems. Second useful info: If I try openSUSE 11.2 the installation starts without problems in normal video mode (1024x768). This tells me that the problem is related to this current kernel 2.6.34. No I know that I don't win anything reinstalling my OS. I need to find the way how to stand up my video in kernel 2.6.34 with 4GB of ram. -- Hernán Thiers García Estudiante de Ingeniería en Informática / I.T.
