[opensuse] KSM server won't start
I installed Opensuse 11.1 Kde4 I686.iso live cd on my MSI MS-7125 Mobrd AMD Athlon 64 3200+ processor. I installed the nvidia driver with One Click install. On restart I end up being stopped with an error that says I cannot start KSM server, Check your installation. Checked the .xsession-errors which tells me my current CPU does not support SSE. Something else I read, can't remember where, said the kernel was wrong version. Can't find what the right one is supposed to be. Existing kernel is 2.6.27.7-9 Default. The KDE version is 4.1.3 I installed the nvidia driver so I could get my 8600GT 512 graphics card working at full power. I'm stuck at this point and don't know what to do. I can only use my 64bit machine from cntl-alt-F2 as I cannot get to X.

This could explain why your kernel is the wrong version and why you are having

Dave P. Good grief!! How embarrassing is this?? I'm fairly new at burning iso's but not that new. Can't believe I downloaded the wrong file. Thanks for the wake up. I'm downloading the correct iso right now and will be in business by tomorrow.
