The installation worked using a DVD, but when I tried to configure the graphic card, the system stops working.
Does it stops working completely or only GUI?
That is: I think you should try to run your Linux in text-mode to fix the issue. When you see your Linux goes black-screen, type: ctrl+alt+F1 to go text-mode. Then run your sax2 and setup your video card.
Hi,
no it stops completely ! (no ping, nothing) I used knoppix to test a few things. The gui of knoppix is comming up and you can work. But if you are moving the mouse often over the taskbar it's freezing again.
It looks like an hardware error, but I know that a former colleague has had the same problems with SuSE 7.x . But he is no longer working here and might also not rember, what he has done to solve this puzzle.
Currently is crashing when the kernel is loaded (no log on the screen). But I CAN boot the rescue system. I can also use the installation DVD and the gui ...
Try booting 'safemode'. If that is reliable then you have a list of kernel boot parameters that you can re-enable one at a time to see what works or doesn't work. My money is on acpi as the culprit. The GUI lockups are symptoms of the real problem. It could be the video driver but usually *ubuntus won't fall over if that is the issue with SUSE. Are these systems up-to-date on their BIOS and firmwares? Stan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
