I removed the nvidia board and installed my new old HD6570 and booted up but it just drops to a cli login with an error about SP5100-tco (nvidia also displays this message so i've assumed its not important).
It first blew out with an error to say i had to enable a BIOS setting for Virtualisation which I did and it cleared that error.
I've also put "radeon.cik_support=1 radeon.si_support=1" on the kernel parameters via yast but still no joy.
Your 6570 is too old for either to apply, so they both should be inert.
The Radeon software is installed and running according to the logs, i've checked journalctl for Radeon errors but no joy.
What simple thing have I missed as I'm a bit out of my depth here?
I read the whole thread. You should have already pastebin'd /var/log/Xorg.0.log by now so people can see what clues it provides.
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | susepaste -n ianseeks -e 10080
I found the issue by looking in that /var/log/Xorg.0.log file, it was a log of the nvidia board being loaded. There was a file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d called 20-nouveau thats was loading nouveau and therefore blocking radeon. i moved it out of there and i'm now up and running. Thanks for the tips and help, most appreciated. snip regards Ian -- opensuse:tumbleweed:20221120 Qt: 5.15.7 KDE Frameworks: 5.100.0 - KDE Plasma: 5.26.3 - kwin 5.26.3 kmail2 5.21.3 (22.08.3) - - Kernel: 6.0.8-1-default - xf86-video-nouveau: 1.0.17
