Hi
I installed Opensuse 13.2 in Virtualbox and everything worked fine. Today I wanted to install multimedia pakets from packman and I used the one click install (from here- opensuse-guide.org/codecs.php.) As I tried to reboot, I landed in the terminal instead of kde…
I have no idee how to fix that.
Look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
It should contain, at the end, a reason to why X failed to start. You can view it with: less /var/log/Xorg.0.log
I looked at the log…359 lines, what should I look for? I don´t know how to post it here…
Anything that starts with EE
Also have you tried to start in failsafe / recovery mode?
The recovery mode brings me also to the console.
There are 2 EE´s:
(EE) AIGLX error: vboxvideo does not export required DRI extentios
(EE) AIGLX: reversting to software rendering
(II) GLX: initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0
First let’s make sure all files and stuff are up to date:
Login as root and run:
zypper ref
then
zypper ve
and
zypper up
Then reboot the virtual machine (just type reboot as root). The first refreshes and checks for updates in the repositories (for new patches, updates etc), the ve verifies that all packages that depend on each other are happy and up updates should there be any updates available.
Hi
I tried zypper ref, there was a “failed connection” error to packman repo, so I disabled that repo, then the same error for ´ecsos´ repo and I disabled it too… It looks that there is no internet connection, I googled around and found this comand for checking connectivity(?):
ping -c (www adress)
and got: “ping: bad numbers of pakets to transmit”
:\
I think you’ll save more time if you simply re-install and next time take a snapshot before you do something big just in case.
I guess you are right.
Thanks a lot for your help!
