Suse 12.2: KDE is black on boot Feb 3rd 2013, 22:20 Hi all, need advice what to do. (Google was not of big help ...) I'm not an expert on linux, so if possible give step-by-step hints. Just made a new install of Suse 12.2 with KDE 4.8.5. The installation went smooth as usual, loaded the kde nicely. BUT after reboot the problem started: the OS loads, comes to the user selection screen without problems; after the KDE splash screen is displayed with 5 icons on green background - and that's it (nothing more). If I then click anywhere it does to BLACK screen with mouse pointer. No desktop. I've tried loading under root, it worked also ONLY for the first time. After that it behaves the same way (black screen with mouse pointer in the middle). What I've tried so far: 1) booting with "nomodeset", failsafe - same result 2) installed nVidia repo - from it latest drivers - run nvidia-xconfig - same result at this stage Google became useless for advice (( Looking forward for any hints/advice.
