If not, I think there was a framebuffer update. You might try to revert to the previous version. You can start YaST in text mode, too.
I do not know, yet, how to start YaST in text mode. I am guessing something like man yast will tell me something, or info yast, perhaps.
As simple as typing "yast" in the terminal... it is a TUI (similar to a GUI, but in text mode). You get the same menus and options, except that without mouse.
A couple things I have learned since I sent my plea for aide.
1) I can ssh into the box. ssh seems to work fine, so I am guessing the frame buffer issue is related to the GUI (which makes asome sense).
Yes.
2) I have been experimenting with virtualization using qemu-kvm (but only using the GUI for creating virtual machines). My colleague found something that was reported years ago about a conflict between VMWare virtualization running at the same time that YaST applies updates (but in that case, it was the guest that was affected, not the host). But I have my doubts as the host is OpenSuse 13.2 and the guests are Ubuntu, Is there any chance that qemu guests are conflicting with the host to cause this problem? Would VirtualBox be a good alternative for virtualization?
I think you should ask that in a different question, here it get lost :-) I would, however, not run updates against the host while virtualization of any kind is running. Obviously you can update the guest any time, there is no other way. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
