Hi! I had a machine with 11.3, and tested 11.4 live CD. It looked good, network worked and so did compiz. But then I installed, and I can’t see any wireless networks, the screen flickers and compis doesn’t work. Is there any way to simple reset all settings so that they become the live-cd settings?
Have you used the option on the liveCD to check the installation media?
From the installed system can you show us from a terminal, as *su -
*
lspci -nnk
Then boot from the liveCD, and the same from a terminal as *su - *(press for the password)
Indicate which is live and which is installed.
If this is a wireless card on the USB bus, also give us
lsusb
Some more general info on your hardware would be useful.
Ah, goody.
Here’s the output from the live CD-settings: lspci liveCD - Pastebin.com
Here they are for the installed OS: [Bash] lspci HD - Pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com/5cVAFgaa)
(I notice now that the monitor tend to flickr a bit with the live CD as well. And also that in the live CD-version, there is an icon in the taskbar that lets me choose wireless network. This isn’t present in the installed OS. )
System:
MSI K9AG Neo-2 Digital motherboard
Amd Athlon 64 x2 Dual core
Asus VW222 monitor
RT2800 802.11n PCI wlan-card, subvendor Ralink
Concerning the video problem,
From the installed OS
1. 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series] [1002:791e]
1. Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. K9AG Neo2 [1462:7327]
1. Kernel driver in use: radeon
From the liveCD

Identical, so following this guide is the best I can advise openSUSE Graphic Card Practical Theory Guide for Users
Wireless, installed system
1. 03:02.0 Network controller [0280]: RaLink RT2800 802.11n PCI [1814:0601]

Wireless, liveCD

Again, identical, so posting in the wireless forum is your way to a resolution.
The hardware detection system, I have been told is different between the the liveCD and the installer, although I have not been able to find out the differences, and they don’t show up here.
You did not mention, did you check the install media?
I notice now that the monitor tend to flickr a bit with the live CD as well.
I think the link I gave above is the best place to start.
And also that in the live CD-version, there is an icon in the taskbar that lets me choose wireless network. This isn’t present in the installed OS.
Which desktop are you using? (KDE, GNOME, or other?)
