System itself worked normally, a login through ssh or typing a blind login is possible. But the display stays black. There helps no init 3 or kill X. Workaraound: Give grub the option 'nomodeset'. Then I get a resolution for my display of 1024x768@70Hz. It makes 1440x900 (Samsung SyncMaster 931bw). Graphic chip on Mainboard, i915. For the first (and second) Kernel of the openSUSE DVD Master 11.4 it worked all fine. Now using the vanilla kernels by opensuse rpms. They worked fine. Why not standard kernel 2.6.37.6-47.1 (and the formerly kernel 2.6.37.6-46). Solving the problem over grub or putting the intelfb into initrd didn't work. This problem occurs on two machines with a similiar installation of openSUSE. One machine is a 64bit with four CPUs with intel chip onboard, the other one 32bit with a ATI chip onboard. The coming 12.1 openSUSE (live CD) works fine with my display. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Booting default (or desktop) Kernel with Suse-Patches 2. See GRUB choosing kernel 2.6.37.6-47.1 3. See for a moment GRUB message loading his stage 4. Display will be black 5. System boot normally without any display 6. Display goes on standby Actual Results: Booting the kernel installed by YaST during a update. Repos: openSUSE standard, KDE4-Factory, Packman. Changing the display manager without any effect. Expected Results: Loading display with the resolution 1440x68@60Hz. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
