I had a similar nightmare experience with 11.2 on my ATI notebook, and I have been using Suse since 10.1. Black screens that come and go, crashes on boot up one time, then fine the next. I tried booting into failsafe mode and trying various drivers, but nothing worked.
Also, I had an inability to log in (it kept returning me to the log in screen. Also YAST would not let me update the system and kept crashing.
And I hated KDE 4 as well, and the inability to use KDE 3, which always worked fine for me.
I tried Mandriva, and Fedora, and had terrible deal-breaker magnitude problems with both of them too.
I finally tried Ubuntu, and everything “just worked”. So I’m gonna stick with that for now. This has been a very bad release cycle for Suse, Mandriva, and Fedora, IMHO.
But I would definitely give Ubuntu a try, those people seem to have it together quite well, at least from my experience.
From flasa4’s error it seem obvious that the upgrade did not upgrade the ATI module to the new kernel. Reinstalling the ATI driver should fix it. Or revert to the vesa driver until you can upgrade to a ATI driver that is compiled for the new kernel. However there does seem to be a problem with ATI cards on 11.2
foresthill you have descripted exactly mu problen and wuth ubuntu same I have Dell Dimension E521 amd athlon x2 5000
Dell MB OCT103 with chipset nvidia 6150 4 GB ram and 2 HD one for windows XP, thaks god, an other for linux, now 2 for windows one for XP and another for WIN7.
And I dident make any Kernel update, Install if directly from opensuse iso. The meaning of this is repositories of Ati and from opensuse arent no good for the moment, I’d install my older nvidia 7300LE and works perfectly with nvidia and XORG drivers. These meanig ATI is not working for linux is just traing to shell grafics card.
