Well, it appears I won't try openSUSE after all. I burned, and verified, another 64 bit DVD. Booted it with and without "nomodeset". No joy. Still gets to the splash screen and sits there. Downloaded and burned/verified the 32 bit version. Same thing. Maybe another time.
While I'm all in favour of debugging new releases, I wonder why first-timers go for 12.0 Lets face it, any .0 release has watershed problems, and 12.0 has crossed a lot of watersheds, systemd being the most notorious. In Billie's position I'd try permutations, after all its easy enough to download and burn * 12.0 32-bit * 11.4 64-bit * 11.4 32-bit Billie, the major difference I hear you talking about is the KVM. Perhaps you need to experiment with a machine not on the KVM or take this machine off the KVM. I too use a KVM, but its not a software-switch one. My 'playground' is the floor, dedicated keyboard, mouse and screen, dustbinnies as my audience. -- The problem with comforting illusions is that someone else ends up footing the bill for your comfort. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
