Hi Guys,
I’m having a very annoying bug. I recently upgraded from 11.4 to 12.1 and when running some applications in KDE like Google chrome i get kicked out of the session automatically. In KDE is not much but in gnome almost all applications or sometime just logging in gnome will simply get me kicked out of the session. After getting kicked out all open applications are closed. After upgrading i also noticed that the hardware compatibility has really dropped for instance i had to configure the graphic card manually and WLAN. The last time i had to do such a thing was before opensuse 10.0 
I have been using opensuse comfortably for quite some time and i have never experienced such a bug. I would appreciate any help to find the bug. :’(
Thanks in advance
Regards
Tschank
The “bug” may very well be some setting in your homedir. Create a new user, login as that user and see if the same things happen.
Question: how did you upgrade from 11.4 to 12.1 ?
A couple of thing that could play: GNOME having moved from GNOME2 to GNOME3, KDE having moved to 4.7.
What you can do, is open Yast’s softwaremanagement, and see if you see a lot of “red packages”.

Online upgrade method

Hi guys,
I did an upgrade via new installation (offline). Meaning that only root was formatted, home is the same.
i have added a new user but the problem still occurs i think its even worse since starting firefox causes also the session kick out in KDE. All packages are up to date in yast and i dont have conflicts.

David

Ok, then it is a new install with an inherited /home partition.

Sorry, I don’t know what can be the cause. If it were an upgrade I had
ideas, but now, no.

Hi Carlos,
Thats even more depressing :-(. Will my log files help before the session kick out? There must be away to get to the cause of the bug. I just need some support

Sorry, but my main system is 11.4 and I can’t even guess what might be the
cause of your problem.

When you get kicked out, go to the console by “Ctrl+Alt+F1”, login with username and password, and do:
tail -30 ~/.xsession-errors > XsesionErrors.txt
EDIT: Then post content of the file (it’s in your homedir) here.
What makes me curious, is
for instance i had to configure the graphic card manually
What videocard, how “configured”, which driver, did you generate a /etc/X11/xorg.conf. or copy it from a previous install?
Hi Knurpht,
My graphic card is Mobile Intel® GMA X3100
lspci -v
Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GME965/GLE960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 3618
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0
Memory at e4500000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1]
Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 3
i configured by booting in level 3
doing:
Xorg -configure
mv /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
reboot and the new configurations worked fine
my xsession error log is
