After I installed open SUSE 11.4 on 5/May/11 the system booted OK, normally, through to the Gnome desktop. Sometime later an automatic update occurred after which I have only been able to boot through in failsafe mode. Letting in boot through normally makes for the display disappearing off the screen but I think it is still booting through because, after I allow the time expected for a full boot through, I can hear/instigate sounds. Subsequent updates haven't corrected this fault and it's occurred the same on 2 separate installations - one on a pentium 4 HP, the other on a 64 bit P5 Acer. Anyone with any solutions to this? -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
