i did an update to 11.4 [from 11.2] and got some strange trouble.
the default kernel did not generate a useable system, since i had no keybord etc. (under investigation)
the desktop failsafe worked. I got the desktop version working with acpi=on since the i915.ko did not load without (bug ?).
Now i am stuck with KDE. It is to smart for its own good. It tries to change the GFX config and gets it wrong. Changing the WM "solves" the problem but that is not what i want.
Anyone an idea where to find the kde config data that sets the display ?
KDE isn't designed for configuring X, only limited tweaking. You could try YaST2 in one of the other WMs, or just boot the default kernel to runlevel 3, login as root, 'cd /etc/X11', 'mv xorg.conf xorg.conf-112', 'init 5', and see if auto config X gets you what you need. Keyboard and mouse drivers in 11.4 are different from those in 11.2, and your xorg.conf is probably setting use of uninstalled drivers. I don't know why other WMs might still work. Which Intel gfx chip do you have (clue: lspci)? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
