Mmm. Check the BIOS config page, make sure you don’t have a floppy configured in there in the list
of hardware (not in the list of boot devices, that’s a different one).

Hi Carlos
I checked BIOS settings and you are right, there was a 1’4 Mb A drive there.
I set it to “none” and then when I reset the PC again I got a black screen instead of the usual desktop.
The only thing on that screen was a little whiite box with a floppy icon on the top right corner.
I had to reboot, go into BIOS and mark the 1’4 Mb A floppy again to be able to get the desktop again.
saludo, Eduardo
Hm. Maybe you have set the Floppy as device to boot from in the BIOS settings?
Try to remove it from or put it after the hard disk in the boot order settings, then your system should boot when you set it to “none” I’d guess.
The problem is not that the system doesn’t boot, the system boots when I set the floppy in BIOS to none, but I get a black screen instead of the kde desktop.
I’ll leave that as it is.
I continue to not be able to suspend to disk.
What am going to try is to place the swap partition on the other disk, /dev/sda instead of /dev/sdb, because the hibernation is still complaining about the swap partition.
R/ Eduardo
Sorry, I have never seen anything like this. KDE should not depend on a Floppy drive being present.
Could you maybe provide a screenshot?
I continue to not be able to suspend to disk.
Try to run “swapon” as root and post the output.
Before installing 13.1 I had no problems with hibernating.
I had /dev/sdb4 as swap
Now I’ve set swap in sda just to change something and see if there is any change.

I’m executing pm-hibernate in order to see what is happening.
I’ve taken a photo of the scree as I don’t know if there is any other way to save the log once system starts hibernate.
How can I post the photo here ?

Unless the machine crash, there are two logs: /var/log/messages, and /var/log/pm-suspend.log.

You upload it to susepaste.org, then post the link here.

After you login, or before?
You could try with a new user, if it is after.

So apparently the swap is working.
I’m executing pm-hibernate in order to see what is happening.
But have you changed the resume parameter to the new swap partition (/dev/sda4) for this boot?
I’ve taken a photo of the scree as I don’t know if there is any other way to save the log once system starts hibernate.
The log goes to /var/log/pm-suspend.log .

Upload the image to http://susepaste.org/ or some random picture share site and use the URL you get there.
I changed the swap partition, yes, and also the grub code:

Have you noted this thread: https://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/laptop/493727-laptop-going-into-kernel-panic-when-sleeps.html#post2612929
What you are suggesting is that I update from my present 3.11.6 to 3.12.6 ?
I need some assistance with that because I don’t know which files I should select in Yast.
The thread you included mentioned: kernel-desktop, kernel source, kernel-devel and kernel-sys
I presently have for 3.11.6:
but in Yast I see for 3.12.6:
and some others
R/ Eduardo
Then install the same for 3.12.6.
But be aware that any already installed 3rd party kernel modules won’t work anymore after installing 3.12.6. This includes proprietary graphics drivers and network drivers (if you had to install them manually because they are not included in the kernel package, that is).
But, your old kernel should still stay installed when you install the new one.
You can boot it by choosing “Advanced Options” in the boot menu if the 3.12.6 kernel would give you problems.
but in Yast I see for 3.12.6:
- kernel-desktop-base
- kernel-default
- kernel-default-base
- kernel-source
- kernel-default-devel
and some others
Those are available for 3.11.6 in the standard OSS repo as well, so why is this surprising you? 
Btw, you could also try the 3.11.10 kernel from here (as I also suggested in that other thread):
Index of /repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-13.1/standard
This one should also contain the necessary fixes already.
Forgive my ignorance but what is confusing me is what packages to choose to go to a new version because the names are not the same.so I don’t know which to choose.
R/ Eduardo
There is no difference in the names.
But I think I know what you mean.
You already have those 3 kernel packages installed, they are not shown a 2nd time with the newer version.
Just select those 3 installed packages, click on “Versions” below the package list and select the 3.12.6 version for installation.
Or right-clicking on them and choosing “Update Unconditionally” should work as well I think.
That’s what I did, and the process was straightforward & successfully resolved the issue without raising new issues for me.
Ok, after upgrading to “3.11.10-7.g016ba65-desktop” hibernation still fails.
I can see the hibernation bar going from right to left, almost to 90 % but then never finishes.
I left it there for almost 5 minutes before rebooting.
