(Noob here) I never expected to see that graphics issue again since I last tried Debian. But w/ Debian the screen was all garbled, not completely blank and no hdd activity. I'll give that a shot. http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Black_screen_after_installation_startup - I think that was the correct document. That very well could be the issue. I'll report back.

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but with my technical support hat on, have you tried the article relating to this problem in the sDB? http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Black_screen_after_installation_startup I that does solve it, it might be an idea to report back. This is a problem that use to come up a lot a few years ago. Not so much any more but if somethings going to cause it to reemerge it's ugly head then I hope we can kill it before it goes into general cerculation.

It is probably too early to start writing aobut KDE 4. The perl update seems to cause some headaches. Would someone please to post some details? Are there incompatibility issues with glibc and networkmanager?
