issues on Thinkpad T410i (openSUSE 12.1)

English Install/Boot/Login

Hi there, maybe someone can help me on my problems.

I did a fresh install on my Thinkpad T410i

  • When booting it comes to an harddisk related issues. Directly after mounting the / partition i hangs for about 40sec before it really starts up.
    31.646330] udevd[443]: error opening ATTR{/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/power/level} for writing: No such file or directory
    31.646966] udevd[443]: error opening ATTR{/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/power/level} for writing: No such file or directory

  • While shutting down It was strange, the green screen of openSUSE just stood there and after some minuits i just switched them off. Yesterday i pressed the ESC button early enough to see it is running to an kernel panic. But, it is not written to disc and i only could see some last lines of the stack output

  • Sometimes when i open some software windows, for example Firefox , Kate and an java app. Sometimes i can browse the web but i cant switch to any other running app. Even the KDE Menue button does not work. Dmesg or syslog does not show anything.

I did a fresh install after the same issues happend after the upgrade via DVD. The new install was made via Netinstall CD.

i guess your problem is in the difference between systemv and
systemd…the latter is the default in 11.4 and previous…lots of
folks are having problems with it…

at the first green screen press F5 and select to boot with systemV…

let us know if the problem goes away and maybe someone can tell you how
to make the switch automatic…

if that does not work you are gonna tell us more…
