I'm at a loss here and after weeks of reading up and triple checking to make sure I've not forgotten anything, I'm again burned out with Suse. This is crazy.
HELP!
I can understand your frustration, since I've been there myself. But I don't think it's quite fair to blame SuSE for a problem with a very particular configuration, particularly when you haven't been able to diagnose the problem yet. You seem already to have done some work with fault isolation, for instance by seeing what works in Windows as a way of ruling out hardware problems. What might be useful would be to find out if anyone else here has hardware similar to yours and if they've had the same problems. You're more likely to get a useful response if you put the question that way than if you post a long history (though sometimes the long history strikes a responsive chord somewhere). Paul
