I had a working tumbleweed with KDM and KDE. Tried also to login to a Gnome session from KDM which returned only the KDM login menu back again. Therefore I decided to make a new, plain 12.3 installation from scratch with only the Gnome desktop installed. Gnome 3.6 login worked ok from the GDM menu after that. Then ran 'zypper dup' which upgraded 12.3 to the latest level. Gnome 3.6 login still worked ok after that. Disabled the 12.3 repositories and added the following five for tumbleweed distro upgrade: 1. openSUSE Current OSS http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/openSUSE-current/repo/oss/ 2. openSUSE_Current_non-OSS http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/openSUSE-current/repo/non-oss/ 3. openSUSE Current updates http://download.opensuse.org/update/openSUSE-current/ 4. openSUSE-Current-non-oss-current http://download.opensuse.org/update/openSUSE-non-oss-current/ 5. Tumbleweed http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/ Then ran 'zypper dup' which upgraded 306 packages to tumbleweed, possibly from Gnome 3.6 to 3.8 included. After this upgrade, neither normal mode nor Advanced (recovery) mode boot up to the GDM login menu, but stop with a black console after the last message "Reached target Graphical Interface" or after "Started LSB x Display Manager".
