Well, you should, because the known problems are listed there.
You can get virtual consoles any time, nothing changed from 13.2-42.1-42.2. My mistake here. I forgot the F-Lock key on this keyboard.
Ok, one less :-)
When you logged in..... what desktop did you set to use? Default (Plasma 5) Did you maintain the home? Yes but I login as root or user with same results. Did you try to set up a new empty user to see if the problems were user dependent (local settings) or if this is really a problem with the graphics driver?
Just the root account.
You should try a new user account, and also another desktop.
Come on. Install problems? Dead machine after install because you run into quirks with proprietary driver or because you do an update over two generations (jumping right away 42.1). Yeap that can of course happen. Black screen with a mouse coursor indicates more of a graphics problem (probably plasma crashed). If you wait long enough it should come back all alone (is the case since 42.1 that plasma once crashed generally autostarts.
Standard install. No proprietary drivers.
Plasma may need the proprietary driver.
I'm not here for help on this. There is nothing "senseless" about staying on 13.2 for the time being. If I need help with a _basic_ install of Leap on hardware that works on 13.2, I will stay with 13.2. The install was just an exercise to see where it is. Can I use this yet sort of thing. I'll try 42.3 when it arrives, but until then I'll be sticking with 13.2.
Well, if you want 42.3 to work, you have to install 42.2 and report and follow each issue on bugzilla. Else, those problems are not known and nobody will work on them. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
