I posted here a week ago with several complaints about 11.1, some of which were legitimate and others which were just "whines".
Whines: -taskbar is hard to configure (I'll just get over myself on that) -Some kde4 application settings (konsole tab button for instance) seem to get lost between sessions. -konqueror no longer has a picture view mode, (I installed google picassa, which is quite nice).
Real problems: -The kernel shipped with 11.1 locks up on this machine. No messages to the console log nor anywhere else I looked. it locks up with the caps lock and wifi leds flashing alternately. The only recourse is to power cycle the machine.
A panic... Any chance of getting the Oops / panic message?
I dealt with this by downloading and installing kernel 2.6.28-9, which is pretty new, but is very stable so far on this machine. Note that I had to get nvidia drivers from their beta area for this kernel, but that is also true of the 2.6.27 kernel shipped with 11.1.
No, the regular NVIDIA repo will work for 11.1. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
